So much has been accomplished in breast cancer research, but there's still so much more to do. Today we recognize the research and do what we can to raise money for it. Hopefully, you're wearing pink today to raise funds for this great work.

3.8 million women in the U.S. have a history of breast cancer.
530 men are estimated to die from breast cancer this year.
30% of newly diagnosed cancers in women this year will be breast cancer.
85% of breast cancer occurs in women with no family history of it.

Let's raise money for research, so one day we'll never see this cancer again!
