The list contains anyone nearby who has an active GoFundMe campaign related to breast cancer: from memorials to fundraisers for hospital costs to general awareness campaigns. Click an image to learn more about each of them.

More About GoFundMe

Unlike other crowdfunding websites such as Kickstarter, GoFundMe focuses more on helping people find very personal goals to fund. 

Patch does not check out every campaign on GoFundMe. If you have questions about a specific campaign above, you can click on the picture to contact the person behind it. If you'd rather contact GoFundMe directly, you can do so here.

The Scale of Breast Cancer Problem

Breast cancer is the most common disease among women in the U.S., accounting for nearly one of every three cancers diagnosed.

In 2013, it is estimated that there will be 232,340 invasive and 64,640 non-invasive new breast cancer cases in the nation.
