OUR MISSION

 

For The Love Of Cups is a non profit 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to saving lives. We provide critical funding for support, research and advanced screenings methods for breast cancer to ensure that everyone receives the benefits of early detection. With love as our driving force we seek to improve and extend the quality of life for breast cancer survivors.

​

Advanced Screening Methods

We believe everyone deserves to benefit from early breast cancer detection. Each day 100 women in the US alone die from breast cancer, and we can’t help but wonder if many of those untimely deaths could have been prevented by advanced screening methods.

 

Over 40% of women have dense breasts and most don't know they have it or know the risks it brings. Ultrasound along with mammogram is required to screen dense breasts for breast cancer. Mammogram alone is not enough.  We help cover the additional costs of ultrasound not covered by insurance.

 

Together we will provide real access to advanced breast cancer screenings so that all women are given a fighting chance to receive the benefits of an early diagnosis. We will champion this cause until no more mothers, sisters, daughters and men are lost to this disease, until the suffering of our loved ones has ended, we must not stop.
