Donating from America

We have established a fund called ‘American Friends of Breakthrough Breast Cancer’, making it easier for American supporters to donate to Breakthrough. CAFAmerica handles the administration of the fund, saving us valuable time and money.  Our experience and great relationship with them means that your donation will be in safe hands.

By donating through the fund, donations of any size are tax deductible. This applies to US taxpayers living both in the UK and the US. Donors can contribute to the fund with various assets including cash, stocks, bonds and grants from private foundations.

As an American Friend of Breakthrough Breast Cancer, you will receive periodic updates about our internationally renowned breast cancer research, education and campaigning work, acknowledgement in our supporter publications and information about future Breakthrough Breast Cancer events in the US.

By making a contribution to this fund, you will be supporting Breakthrough Breast Cancer’s research, campaigning and education work. Your support will enable us to continue bringing the best minds together to find better ways to diagnose, treat and ultimately prevent breast cancer.

Your gift will support the work of world-class scientists in our Research Centre in London and in our Research Units in London, Edinburgh and Manchester. We attract some of the brightest and most talented scientists in the field, many of whom have become world leaders in breast cancer research. In the past ten years we have pioneered an entirely new direction in cancer drug development, our research has led directly to an unprecedented ten clinical trials in ten years, and our research has led to the publication of 775 journal articles.

But there is still a long way to go - 1.5 million people are diagnosed with breast cancer worldwide, ever year. By donating to American Friends of Breakthrough Breast Cancer you will be part of our mission to save lives and change futures by removing the fear of breast cancer for good.
