The Pink Ribbon Foundation is a not-for-profit organization whose mission is to promote breast cancer awareness, education and prevention.

Through fundraising events, the Foundation raises money to support programs for the treatment of breast cancer and to increase community education through donations to local programs and organizations.

The Foundation promotes the well being of those we love, those who have been diagnosed with breast cancer, those who have survived this terrible disease, and honors those we have lost.

The Pink Ribbon Foundation and its Breast Cancer Patient Taskforce is a primary granting source for the Connecting Hope, Assistance and Treatment (CHAT) Program, which assists women with breast cancer who have insufficient income and insurance coverage to pay for necessary services and treatment related to their breast cancer diagnosis.

Eligible women may receive assistance to help defray the cost of Tamoxifen, breast prostheses and bras, wigs, transportation and childcare related to treatment, counseling, compression sleeves and other breast cancer related expenses as deemed appropriate.

To apply, women or their advocates should complete the
CHAT Resource Request form available at http://www.brighamandwomens.org/communityprograms/CHATProgram.asp
or from Angela Covington at 617 732-5759
or email acovington@partners.org

Be aware. Be educated.
