Breast Intentions is a 501 (c) (3) charity started in New Jersey by two high school teens in 2007, who witnessed the first-hand the struggles of treating breast cancer. After their mother and two aunts were all affected by breast cancer within the same year, they wanted to make a difference. They began selling t-shirts, candy, and bracelets to raise money for healing families in their community. The money raised has purchased wigs, prosthetics, paid living expenses, transportation to and from treatments, co-pays, and utility bills - and only grew from there...

THIS IS WHERE WE ARE DIFFERENT THAN OTHER CHARITIES

Although there are many fantastic charitable organizations that are focused on research and awareness, the goal of Breast Intentions is to help cure the day-to-day financial strain that a breast cancer diagnosis often brings.

• We pay heat and electric bills when families are stuck making the choice between necessities and medicine.
• We provide patients with car services to and from medical appointments.
• We even assist with rent payments so women do not have to choose between medical expenses and a place to live.

We address what keeps the patients up at night so that they can focus on healing. 

All the money raised by Breast Intentions goes directly back to our local communities.
