Breast Cancer Awareness Month with BD-Canada and Breast Cancer Canada

This October, BD Canada is excited to continue our collaboration with Breast Cancer Canada to support research, education and advocacy that advances progress for people affected by breast cancer.

We’re coming together to raise awareness and funds for innovative, patient-centred research that can lead to earlier detection, more effective treatments and better quality of life.

Our fundraising event will reach its highlight on October 8, 2026, with a special Community Walk & Talk at the BD Canada Mississauga office. This year’s event will bring together the BD Canada team, community partners, four professional women’s hockey players and special guests for an afternoon focused on connection, awareness and progress.
