Making Strides Against Breast Cancer!

On October 24, colleagues and students from the Johns Hopkins Breast Center came together for the American Cancer Society’s Making Strides Against Breast Cancer event to support the fight against breast cancer.

We’re proud to share that the Johns Hopkins Breast Center team ranked 15th out of 441 teams and raised over $3,000 in support of the American Cancer Society! 🎉

Thank you to everyone who participated, donated, and helped make a difference. Together, we continue to raise awareness, support those impacted by breast cancer, and move closer to a world without breast cancer. 💗

Could genetics play a role in your breast cancer risk? Certain inherited gene changes, including changes in the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes, can increase the risk of breast and other cancers. If you have a strong family history of breast or ovarian cancer, talk with your health care provider about whether genetic counseling may be appropriate.
