March 12, 2024 — Announced today, Jasper Health welcomes Breastcancer.org to its Nonprofit Partner Network to strengthen the support for those affected by breast cancer. Breastcancer.org bolsters Jasper Health’s existing 80+ National and Local Nonprofit Network, which supports Jasper’s more than 18,000 members to get connected to programs and services that fit their unique needs.

Overall, the average risk of a woman in the United States developing breast cancer sometime in her life is about 13%. This means there is a 1 in 8 chance she will develop breast cancer. Having a robust Nonprofit Partner network is critical to supporting Jasper members where they are. Breastcancer.org is a leading patient-focused resource for breast health and breast cancer education and support. Their mission is to engage and empower people with research, expert information, and a dynamic peer support community to help them make the best decisions for their lives. The nonprofit organization, founded in 2000 by Chief Medical Officer Marisa C. Weiss, M.D., has reached 222 million people worldwide since its start.

“We are thrilled to welcome Breastcancer.org as our newest partner to offer personalized resources and support to its members,” shared Latoya Santiago, Chief of Staff and Head of Partnerships at Jasper Health, “Breastcancer.org already helps millions of people affected by breast cancer and we are honored to have their expertise.”

Hope Wohl, CEO of Breastcancer.org, commented on the partnership, stating, “Breastcancer.org’s expertise is rooted in our deep understanding of the educational and support needs of people managing a breast cancer diagnosis. This partnership strengthens our ability to connect our community members to personalized tracking and monitoring tools that help them stay on course with their treatment and manage side effects.”
