Well, We Did It!
 The Step and Think Pink BCA Foundation and Sistas In Sync hosted our first School Supply Drive for the Children of Breast Cancer Survivors on Friday, August 7, 2009 at the Dorchester in Dolton, IL. The event was an absolute success! There are no words that can express our sincere gratitude for the overwhelming support. There were approximately 400 attendees from Chicago and across the Nation. As a result of your generosity, we were able to bless more than 100 children with school supplies and monetary contributions. Your continued commitment to helping us help the breast cancer survivors in and around our community is sincerely appreciated. Click here to view photos from the event |

The Best defense against breast cancer is a good offense. There are no perfect solutions, but you can do many things to reduce your risk of developing the disease. Risk Factors The Best defense against breast cancer is a good offense. There are no perfect solutions, but you can do many things to reduce your risk of developing the disease. Race and Ethnicity White women are slightly more likely to develop breast cancer than are African-American women. African-American women are more likely to die of this cancer. At least part of this seems to be because African-American women tend to have more aggressive tumors, although why this is the case is not known. Asian, Hispanic, and Native-American women have a lower risk of developing and dying from breast cancer.
