Breast Impressions, Inc.
Our mission is to increase breast cancer awareness and fund raising to support breast cancer education, prevention and treatment. We donate breast casting kits to women who have recently been diagnosed with breast cancer, to make a memory prior to surgery.
Here is a listing of all the events and projects accomplished since Breast Impressions' inception. Unlike many organizations who only donate a portion of the proceeds from their benefits - Breast Impressions gives 100% of the breast cast auction proceeds directly to the breast health program, support group, or organization the event planners have chosen. This sets Breast Impressions apart as a Non Profit dedicated to those affected by breast cancer.
