| How can you make a difference in the fight against breast cancer?
By donating to the Climb for Hope, you will help us achieve our mission of finding the next treatment for woman with advanced breast cancer.
In fact, through the hard work of our climbers, we raised $550,000. Climb for Hope achieved two major breakthroughs:
1. We sped up research on a vaccine that has shown promise in fighting cancer in breast cancer patients. This vaccine may save thousands of women who are stricken with a life threatening form of breast cancer. It’s being developed by Dr. Leisha Emens at Johns Hopkins University.
2. Our funding provided enough resources to fund additional trials -- yielding valuable information to make the vaccine even more effective
The expedition climbers (many of whom are attempting a summit for the first time) have made the personal commitment to undertake the rigorous training program provided by seasoned guides and to meet their individual fundraising goals in support of the Foundation’s goal to find the next viable treatment for breast cancer
Please support a climber’s fundraising effort by making a donation on the individual fundraising pages above.
Take a look at all the fundraiser pages as well as the links at www.climbforhope.com to research information on the vaccine, our climbing itinerary and corporate sponsorship.

Our team will struggle to the summit so mothers, sisters, wives, daughters and friends may some day not have to suffer from breast cancer. |
