BREAST CANCER RESOURCE CENTER
www.bcrcwa.org
The BCRC was established to address the holistic needs of those who have been affected by breast cancer. Their mission is to enhance the quality of life for those touched by breast cancer and to increase the awareness and knowledge of breast cancer and breast health. Clients are met by staff that are attentive, warm and caring in a supportive environment while being helped with diagnostic vouchers and/or receiving services all at no cost to the client. These services range from wigs, hats, head coverings, prosthesis (knitted or regular), post surgical camisole, bras, and classes for relaxation or exercise. Everything is about creating a community that is welcoming and open so that we can fulfill our mission and motto...Because no one should face breast cancer alone.
YOUNG SURVIVAL COALITION – SEATTLE

Young Survival Coalition is the premier global organization dedicated to the critical issues unique to young women & breast cancer. Together, we are a powerful community fighting breast cancer in young women. The Seattle Affiliate was formed in 2002 by a group of young survivors and has proudly served over 130 young women with breast cancer in the Puget Sound region. We offer direct support services, resources, connections & outreach so women feel empowered & hopeful. We believe no woman diagnosed under age 40 should be left to face breast cancer alone.
SEATTLE CANCER CARE ALLIANCE

Seattle Cancer Care Alliance (SCCA) is a cancer treatment center that unites doctors from Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, UW Medicine and Seattle Children’s. Our goal, every day, is to turn cancer patients into cancer survivors. Our purpose is to lead the world in the prevention and treatment of cancer. Beats for Boobs™ will be supporting three specific programs at SCCA: the Family Assistance Fund, the MammoVan and SCCA House. The Family Assistance Fund helps clinic staff respond to immediate patient needs such as transportation and groceries while in treatment. The MammoVan will supply mammograms to un-insured or underinsured women. SCCA House is a patient housing facility designed to address the physical, emotional and logistical challenges of cancer treatment
