WHY WE WALK & Facts about Breast Cancer…

• Because every woman is at risk for breast cancer- a disease that strikes at random and for which the causes and cures are still unknown.
• An estimated 5 million Americans will be diagnosed with breast cancer- and more than 1 million could die- over the next 25 years.
• Breast cancer is the leading cancer among American women and is second only to lung cancer in cancer deaths.
• One woman is diagnosed with breast cancer every three minutes and one woman will die of breast cancer every 13 minutes in the United States.
• An estimated 40,460 women and 450 men will die from breast cancer in 2008.
• Only 5 to 10 percent of breast cancers are due to heredity. The majority of women with breast cancer have no known significant family history or other known risk factors.
• Without a cure, one in eight women in the US will continue to be diagnosed with breast cancer- a devastating disease with physical, emotional, psychological and financial pain that can last a lifetime!
