The Fact: The rate of woman’s breast cancer diagnosis has increased in adults in their 30s over this past decade. A recent study showed there were 34,233 early-onset cancer cases in younger women in 2010 and 35,721 in 2019, an increase of 4.35%.

Our Mission: To empower those diagnosed with breast cancer and their families from day one and beyond.

Our Purpose: Survivingbreastcancer.org (SBC )supports people going through breast cancer. We provide a sanctuary of strength, compassion, and empowerment, where those diagnosed with cancer unite to share their stories, learn invaluable coping strategies, and find solace in the unbreakable bond that fuels hope, resilience, and the courage to conquer adversity.

Our Story: Survivingbreastcancer.org (SBC) was created in 2017 to help fill the gaps in breast cancer support, education and resources. It was founded by Laura Carfang, recently diagnosed at that time in her early 30’s, and has grown exponentially since, serving members in the global breast cancer community. Over these past few years the SBC website has been visited by community members (over 1,000,000 page views) across 120+ plus countries, and Laura’s podcast, Breast Cancer Conversations has been listened to in over 80 countries.

Leveraging technology and breaking down barriers to access and information, SBC puts the patient first, educating, encouraging and inspiring advocacy. Community members are encouraged to participate in the various free programming, events and services and are all invited to contribute to resolving the growing needs of this population.

All services, education, programming and events are free to those diagnosed with breast cancer, as well as their caregivers.

Our Approach

SBC serves as an educational and virtual community platform offering support and meeting patients and their families where they are on the continuum of a cancer diagnosis.

We combine evidence-based medical research with the personal lived experiences of those we serve. From risk reduction strategies and prevention, to treatment, survivorship, living with a terminal diagnosis, navigating end of life, and beyond, Surviving Breast Cancer is here for you every step of the way.

Thank You: Thank you for being part of the team and raising critical funds to enable us to offer our programs and services to support those diagnosed with breast cancer from day one and beyond!
