Breakthrough Breast Cancer

A gift in your will

[ node--page--full.tpl : 'full']

Eve Smith

A reduced risk of breast cancer is a precious gift you can give to all women in the future by remembering Breakthrough Breast Cancer in your will today.

After thinking of friends and family, a gift in your will is a wonderful opportunity to remember a cause that matters to you. Whether you’re making your will for the first time or just need to update it, including a gift to Breakthrough Breast Cancer isn’t complicated.

In the past 10 years, Breakthrough Breast Cancer has built great foundations in our understanding of breast cancer. Over the next 20 or 30 years, we will be part of a revolution in the way the disease is diagnosed, treated and managed.

Scientists believe more than half of breast cancers could be prevented if we fully understood the causes. Gifts in wills will help fulfil the huge potential of our research in the coming decades, preventing half of all breast cancers and successfully treating those we can’t prevent.

With your help, one day we’ll be able to make the ultimate breakthrough – a future free from the fear of breast cancer.

Eve Smith, breast cancer campaigner (pictured), says: “The gift I’ve put in my will to Breakthrough Breast Cancer is my personal thank you for the life-changing research it does, which means so much to women and to our families.”
