Gifts Benefitting Breast Cancer help fight against the disease.
According to the National Breast Cancer Foundation, breast cancer is the second leading cause of cancer-related death in American women. Approximately 200,000 women and 1,700 men are diagnosed with the disease every year in the United States.
