The Alamo Breast Cancer Foundation runs a grassroots advocacy program to eradicate the presence of breast cancer in our society.

Every year, Alamo Breast Cancer Foundation sponsors special mentoring sessions for patient advocates at SABCS. These usually take place 5 PM – 8 PM on Wednesday, Thursday & Friday during the symposium.

Leading experts in the field of breast cancer provide commentary on symposium presentations and responding to advocates’ questions about the relevance of this scientific data.

Every year the Alamo Breast Cancer Foundation provides scholarships for eligible breast cancer advocates to attend the annual San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium, and take part in Mentor Sessions.

The 14th Annual Advocate Program is sponsored by Alamo Breast Cancer Foundation (ABCF), a non-profit 501[c]3 organization. This San Antonio-based grassroots advocacy, educational, and support organization was established for women and men with breast cancer and for those concerned about breast cancer issues. ABCF is active locally and nationally (as members of the National Breast Cancer Coalition) in their goal to eradicate breast cancer in our lifetime.

The 1st Annual Advocate Program was held in 1998, in conjunction with the 21st Annual San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium, as an educational program specially designed to address the needs of
patient advocates and those who support them. The program for 2010 will include Orientation, Dinner, Mentors Program, and Breast Cancer Update for the grant recipients. 40-50 travel grants are expected to be available for 2011, pending receipt of sufficient grant funds.

The administration of this program is handled entirely by Alamo Breast Cancer Foundation. Their 2011 proposal will be mailed to a select list in June, and we hope you will support their program in addition to the 34th Annual San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium.
