Program: Support for Breast Health Education and Cancer Screenings

Subject:
Breast cancer, Screenings, Health, Women

Geographic Area: National  

 

Eligibility: Funding is awarded to organizations implementing a program that provides education and information on breast health and breast cancer, and helps women access medical providers, ensuring that women in need obtain breast cancer screening and any follow-up care they may require. Small community-based organizations are encouraged to apply.     

 

Average Grant Amount:  $45,000.00
 

Deadline: August 21, 2015  

 

Description:

The mission of the Avon Breast Health Outreach Program (BHOP) is to link medically underserved women and men to breast health education and screening services. Grants are available to community-based nonprofit organizations and healthcare agencies in the U.S., Guam, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. The Avon BHOP supports non-medical expenses incurred by funded programs to link underserved women with free or low-cost breast cancer screening services and follow-up care. Approximately $2.5 million in grant funds will be awarded to around 50 organizations. The majority of the grants will range from $30,000 to $60,000, with an average of $45,000. To ensure that smaller community-based organizations receive funding, at least 30% of the grants will be awarded to organizations with operating budgets under $2,000,000. Projects in Avon Walk Cities as well as states with high breast cancer incidence or morbidity are of special interest; however, BHOP attempts to distribute funds throughout the entire U.S.
