The National Breast Cancer Foundation (NBCF) is the leading community-funded national organisation in Australia raising money for research into the prevention and cure of breast cancer. Since the NBCF was established in 1994, over $55 million has been awarded to 230 research projects across every state and territory, to improve the health and wellbeing of those affected by breast cancer.
Research programs funded by the NBCF cover every aspect of breast cancer, from increasing understanding of genetics to improving ways to support women and their families. The NBCF research programs have built a reputation of prestige and excellance through their rigorous peer review processes that consider the project´s quality, feasibilityand relevance to breast cancer.
The NBCF is unique in its research funding as it is the only community organisation that awards funds specifically for research across the continuum of breast cancer - from genetics to treatment, to support and palliative care. Funds raised are directed to the best research in Australia – we are neither limited by state boundaries nor institutional policies. They have no vested interest other than ensuring the progress knowledge about breast cancer.
As a nation, we have all the ingredients to successfully push onwards towards the prevention, and eventual cure for breast cancer but the most important part of the recipe is you.
