breast cancer awareness month

Breast Cancer Canada

Fuel Progress, Every Month.

Research doesn’t happen overnight, it happens one study, one discovery, and one donor at a time. Monthly giving provides Breast Cancer Canada with the reliable funding needed to invest in research, education, and advocacy that improves outcomes for people affected by breast cancer across the country.
When you give monthly, you’re standing with the over 30,000 Canadians who will be diagnosed this year, and helping build a future where care is more personalized and treatment is more effective.

Leaving Your Community for Cancer Treatment: 
Understanding the Patient Impact
Have you or a loved one had to leave your community for cancer treatment in the past five years? Breast Cancer Canada is proud to support the Canadian Cancer Survivor Network and Quebec Cancer Coalition in an important national survey:
This survey builds on earlier research exploring the experiences of Canadians who have had to travel for cancer treatment. 
The findings are building Canadian data of the real-world impacts of travelling for cancer treatment and inform discussions with decision-makers across Canada to improve equitable access to care, regardless of where someone lives.
We encourage you to take part and share your experience.
Take the Survey
Breast Cancer Canada is excited to be collaborating with Montreal singer-songwriter Karen Myatt on the production of a music video for her upcoming single When We Were Beautiful, to be released this summer.
The video will feature women from across Canada who have experienced or are currently experiencing breast cancer. Through simple, authentic selfie style videos, we choose to honour the many emotions that come with a breast cancer diagnosis.
If you or someone you know would like to participate, please contact: social@breastcancerprogress.ca by Friday, August 7th, 2026.
To participate, please send the following:Your name, age, and location.Your breast cancer story (if you are comfortable sharing).
Your video can be as simple as a cell phone recording from the shoulders up. The concept is that you are looking at yourself in the mirror, so you can look directly into your camera.
We will also share an embargoed copy of the song to play in the background while you film your video.
There is no right or wrong way to respond. We invite you to simply listen and allow whatever emotions arise naturally. If it feels right, you can end your video with a smile.
Videos can be as short or long as the full length of the song. Only brief portions of each submission will be used, with clips thoughtfully woven together to create the final video.
