Breast Cancer Research Foundation
BCRF’s mission is to prevent and cure breast cancer by advancing the world’s most promising research. Founded by Evelyn H. Lauder in 1993, BCRF-funded investigators have been deeply involved in every major breakthrough in breast cancer prevention, diagnosis, treatment, survivorship, and metastasis. This year, BCRF has awarded $60.2 million in grants to support the work of more than 250 scientists at leading medical and academic institutions across 14 countries, making BCRF the largest private funder of breast cancer research worldwide. BCRF is also the highest-rated breast cancer research organization in the U.S. Flagship Programs BCRF seeks to make breast cancer no longer life-threatening and to eventually eradicate breast cancer altogether by funding innovative clinical and translational research. BCRF supports the broadest portfolio of cancer research possible, supporting the entire spectrum from every angle, from prevention through treatments to survivorship. BCRF aims to develop, through research, more effective treatments that have fewer side effects than chemotherapy or other currently available treatments. BCRF aims to advance our knowledge about the risk factors and causes of breast cancer and develop evidence-based interventions to prevent and reduce the risk of breast cancer. This year, BCRF awarded $60.2 million in grants to support the work of more than 250 scientists at leading medical and academic institutions across 15 countries, making BCRF the largest private funder of breast cancer research worldwide. BCRF supports research in breast cancer all over the world through an innovative grant-making model. With the support of a world-renowned scientific advisory board, BCRF selects the best and brightest researchers in breast cancer and invites them to apply for funding. Because BCRF supports people and not projects, those that make it through the rigorous, peer-reviewed, selection process are empowered to pursue their most creative, innovative, and game-changing ideas. BCRF also knows that progress in research doesn't happen in silos. We foster collaborations by bringing together BCRF investigators for meetings and symposiums. The non-competitive grant applications also encourage the sharing of ideas, not keeping them private for their own grants.

Grapevine is a platform that provides our group with an online home that allows us to donate to a shared pool then collaborate to decide which nonprofits to give the money to. They also provide our group with free virtual event planning and hosting support, donation matching funds, and more!
At Grapevine our mission is to help grow the giving circle movement. In order to do that, we’re working to help launch giving circles in new areas and categories where they don’t exist already. That’s why we’re starting Content Creators for Good. As we develop this group, we’ll identify leaders within the group and help them maintain and grow the group over time.

The time commitment is as little or as much as you’d like. In general though, most members will spend about 5 hours per year participating in the group. This includes nominating and/or just voting on selected nonprofits once per quarter, as well as attending one-hour events each quarter (four per year), some networking events, and other opportunities to connect with other group members. However, there is no requirement to participate in the events. Additionally, we’d love to work with members interested in getting more involved to help lead and grow the group, which would require a few additional hours per quarter or year, depending upon your capacity.
We don’t charge any membership fees, but our payment processor charges a nonprofit discounted credit card fee of 2.2% + 30¢ per donation (3.5% for AmEx). If you’d like, you can leave an optional amount on top of your donation that supports Grapevine’s work.
Anyone who identifies as content creator is eligible to join. This can be for any business type, industry, position, or level. All are welcome!
We’ll reach out to you about the status of your membership within one week. If your membership is approved, we’ll send you the information for joining the group and adding your donation.
