Breast Investigators

We have some really exciting news to share! On January 16th, one of our network members, the Cancer Support Community Florida Suncoast (CSC) announced that it has acquired a national non-profit organization, Brides Against Breast Cancer™.

Brides Against Breast Cancer™ is an organization that uses charity wedding gown sales to raise money to offer support, education and hope to cancer patients and their families. This is a win-win program, allowing brides to find their dream gown for a great deal while helping cancer patients. It is also beneficial to the brides, designers, retailers and manufacturers that donate the gowns to be able to contribute to such a worthy cause!

The Brides Against Breast Cancer™ program has received more than 50,000 wedding gowns, due in part to it's large media coverage. They have been featured in Redbook, Family Circle, Woman's Day, Time, and on the Oprah Winfrey show as well as many other outlets. They welcome donated gowns from brides who no longer need them, as well as new gowns from designers and retail stores. All gown donations are tax deductible of course.

We know that the CSC will be able to extend the reach of Brides Against Breast Cancer™. New gowns are arriving daily at the CSC offices, and it is clear to see that the local community is excited about this new project as well! We can't wait to see what big things that this new acquisition will mean for both the CSC and Brides Against Breast Cancer™.
