How to Get Involved

This October during Breast Cancer Awareness Month, we invite you to start your day off right: by fighting breast cancer over breakfast. Make a difference. Make history. Make Strides While Making Breakfast!

Register online to join us and kick off your fundraising efforts with a personal donation of $25. Then, you’ll have access to your Personal Participant Center, which includes all the tools you’ll need to start spreading the word and raising funds to fight breast cancer and save lives.

Culinary skills are not required to participate; however, as breakfast is the most important meal of the day, we encourage you to make the most of this opportunity by hosting a healthy breakfast at your home or organizing a group outing to one of your favorite local spots. You can choose the day you'd like to Make Strides While Making Breakfast, or even decide to do it more than once.

Whether you stay home in your slippers, host a meal for friends and family, or go out to your favorite diner, the important part is that you are making a commitment to save lives from breast cancer and raise much-needed funds and awareness to end this disease.
