be aware before you buy

There are many companies and brands, particularly during October, that sell special products to raise awareness and funds for breast cancer. We at The Breast Cancer Research Foundation take enormous pride in selecting companies and brands that want to help us raise money for research in a transparent manner and have a "heart" for the research we support around the globe.

We want you to feel comfortable about buying these special products. Here are some frequently asked questions and our responses to them.

Every partner must state either the dollar amount or the exact percentage and if applicable the minimum or maximum amount being donated to BCRF.

A. BCRF gives a minimum of 85 cents of every dollar donated to research and awareness programs.

Q. How reputable is the charity?

Q. Is the charity's mission meaningful to you?
