B4BC volunteer and Vail local Tasha Wyatt had such an incredible experience volunteering with B4BC that she wanted to do more, so she created an all-female hockey tournament benefiting Boarding for Breast Cancer and two other breast cancer organizations. Read her story to see how her team, The Breakaways, fundraised over $4,000 in one night for the cause!
Letters like this fill our hearts with hope + happiness. Tom Brown was diagnosed with stage IV cancer in 2008 and founded the Surfing for Life Foundation in between nearly 40 rounds of chemo as a way to raise cancer prevention awareness amongst the surfing community. Through his iconic blue wristbands and cancer screening events, the Surfing For Life Foundation donates back to organizations that align with that mission. Tom comes by the B4BC office and drops off a check for us every quarter, and to date has donated over $3,000. Thank you Tom for all the good work that you do, and for being an inspiration to those fighting cancer everywhere!
Our volunteer community plays an incredibly important role in helping us spread our message and keep our programs strong & moving.

Last month we were honored to work with friend & breast cancer survivor Laura Milstead to help provide a Yosemite hiking retreat experience for (16) survivors. The weekend was an extension of the B4BC Survivorship Fund, established to connect breast cancer survivors with nature-based wellness experiences that enhance their path of healing and long-term survivorship.
We want to extend a shout out of THANKS to the UCLA Snow Team for hosting their annual B4BC fundraiser earlier this week in Westwood, CA. This year’s event marked a decade of support from the Bruin Shredders, with current members & alumni coming out in full force to support B4BC!
