Dear Friend,
All of us who have experienced cancer, or supported a loved one through their journey, know that there are times when we can feel as if we are swimming against the tide.
We at Massachusetts Breast Cancer Coalition (MBCC) are dedicated to eliminating the environmental causes of breast cancer so that future generations will not have to struggle with cancer’s life-changing effects.
Against the Tide provides vital funding for community education and policy advocacy about the toxic substances that have been linked to breast and other cancers, and ill-health.
The spirit you showed by participating in 2024 Against the Tide events inspires and enables us to continue moving forward despite all the challenges we face!
Quite simply, we could not do this work without you.
We are truly grateful for the passionate support of all of our volunteers, participants, donors, and sponsors that progress MBCC towards its goal of cancer prevention.
We kindly ask that you consider joining us next year for the 32nd Annual Hopkinton Against the Tide event on June 15th, 2024 and the very special 25th Annual Cape Cod Against the Tide event on August 10th, 2024.
Fundraising pages will remain open and accepting pledges until October 1, 2023. You can also mail your pledges or donations directly to MBCC: Post Office Box 202, Franklin, MA 02038.
With heartfelt thanks and enduring appreciation,
Cheryl Osimo
Executive Director
Massachusetts Breast Cancer Coalition
