Chances are, you know at least one person who has been personally affected by breast cancer.
FACTS:
Breast cancer is the second most common cancer in women in the United States. It is about 30% (or 1 in 3) of all new female cancers each year. 1 in 8 women in the United States will be diagnosed with breast cancer in her lifetime. (Some men also develop breast cancer.) The Project Management Institute - New Jersey (PMINJ) believes that each of us can be a “change maker”. By supporting and joining Making Strides Against Breast Cancer, we can help raise awareness and funds for research, prevention, and treatment of breast cancer.
