- Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in women.
- 1 in 8 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in her lifetime.
- Only about 10% of individuals diagnosed with breast cancer have a family history of this disease.
- On average, every 2 minutes a woman is diagnosed with breast cancer and 1 woman will die of breast cancer every 13 minutes.

It is important to educate and empower women to take charge of their breast health, as early detection, while not perfect, can help save lives. National Breast Cancer Foundation has also published an eBook guide entitled, What Every Women Needs to Know.
