Amanda has a amazing story and we are so happy to have her want to throw a benefit for The Keep A Breast Foundation!! Amanda Lucas a 24 year old from Milford, MA shares her story:
” I’m a 3 time cancer survivor. I have a heart that is crying out to stop young adult and people in general to get themselves checked. Knowledge is the best weapon when it comes to cancer and prevention. I met KAB a few years back and they really listened to me, and got teary eyed when i told them my story.
I want to be a person that people know for surviving and doing something about their second chance (4th in my case) and without people like me there will be a lot more under 30 cases being diagnosed at a late stage like myself. ”

On this year’s Valentine’s Weekend, it was out of the question to do V-Day as usual! No flowers or dinner or red heart pillows on our bed! No! After packing the car, we headed to the Pyrenean ski resort of Saint- Lary for a two-days event dedicated to the ladies for the third edition of the Betty Jam, an 100%-girls contest, 18 passionate girls, aged from 8 to 25 came and the whole Keep A Breast Europe Team was there!
Keep A Breast Europe spreads the word of Breast Cancer prevention all over Europe and Idoia and Maia, two competitors from the Basque Country, understood the impact of our message and decided to ride wearing our KAB tee-shirts!
Our prevention message could be heard on the slopes: “Check Your Self”!
Keep A Breast Europe would like to thank the I’m a Girl Association for inviting us on the event.
See you next year!

Betty Jam 10 ‘, Saint- Lary, France.
Le weekend de la saint Valentin, hors de question de se plier aux règles ! Ni fleurs, ni repas en amoureux, direction les pistes des Pyrénées pour deux jours 100% snow entre filles.
Pour la troisième édition du Betty Jam, compétition réservée aux filles, le team Keep a Breast Europe était présent.
Sur le snow park, 18 nanas âgées de 8 à 25 ans passionnées par la glisse. En bas des pistes, deux stands, celui de Mountain riders, et le nôtre ! Tee-shirts, badges, bracelets, sticks pour les lèvres,… tout y était pour sensibiliser au maximum les skieurs venus nombreux ce jour-là.
Keep a Breast Europe s’installe lentement en Europe et tend à répandre la bonne parole autour du cancer du sein. Idoia et Maia, deux comépétitrices en provenance directe du Pays- Basque, ont compris le message et ont ainsi choisi de rider toute la journée avec un tee-shirt à notre effigie !
Un message de prévention résonnait sur les pistes… « Check Yourself ».
Keep a Breast Europe remercie toute l’équipe de l’association I’m a Girl, organisatrice de l’event Betty Jam depuis trois saisons déjà.
A l’année prochaine !

Look at the smile on this beautiful woman Lyn Mills.
We just met Lyn, as she walked into the Keep A Breast traveling education tent at the ROXY PRO in Australia.
Lyn is an 8 year breast cancer survivor. She was walking by our tent at the contest and noticed what KAB was doing, not really realizing that the breast casts on display were being auctioned off, she quietly wished in her mind that she could own the beautiful cast of Mel Evans painted by Tazmen Hayes.
Upon leaving our tent, Lyn’s friend told us that Lyn only had a few days left to live, and if that is truly the case, we pray that it is not, she thanked us for making those last days brighter.
Lyn came back the next day and bought that piece via our silent auction and has this to say:
” I am breast cancer survivor for 8 years. I have advanced breast cancer with bone metasteses. I am honored to have won ” Mel’s Boobs” and to be able to display them in my home. I am totally in love with my tribe (women). Thank you Keep A Breast.

The FAMILY Bakery in Gate City, VA. has made a Keep A Breast Cupcake!
“The cupcake I designed is called The Awesome Cupcake. It’s very similar to “funfetti” cake mix, but I top it off with a rich pink buttercream icing. We take a dollar off of each cupcake sold to donate to your The Keep A Breast Foundation!”

Troy Lee Designs and The Keep A Breast Foundation have teamed up to raise awareness for breast cancer during Anaheim round 3 of AMA Supercross, where the Troy Lee Designs / Lucas Oil / Honda race team wore Pink GP Air “Bolt” Gear and customized “Love / Hate” AIR helmets to commemorate the race. The campaign is part of a larger effort to dedicate the entire race to breast cancer awareness.
Keep A Breast and Troy Lee Designs have created beautifully designed breast casts with Supercross Announcers Erin Bates and Ashley Phillips,that are now up for auction!
“When the opportunity came for us to work with the Keep A Breast Foundation, I was really excited about coming together to raise awareness about breast cancer and someday finding a cure,” says Ashley Phillips. “Any contribution I can make to the research is worth it to me, even if it means getting wrapped in plaster from the waist up! My aunt was diagnosed five years ago, but it wasn’t until one of my friends was diagnosed that I realized its impact on generations of women. Both my aunt and friend are now in full remission! I hope this experience and the entire day will bring more awareness of this disease within our sport.”

We are so excited to have Jessica on board as a Keep A Breast Ambassador!Jessica Chobot is awesome. She found us on Modlife and hit us up on how to get involved. What started as wearing a shirt or two on camera turned into us meeting up to San Francisco to meet her, cast her and talk about her new iPhone app coming up supporting KAB.
Jessica is one of 5 zombie girlfriends in the new game Pocket Zombie. You can donate to the girlfriends’ charities through the main menu. Check out Pocket Zombie on iTunes: www.tinyurl.com/pocketzombie
Tristan Prettyman was kind enough to take some time out of her schedule and welcome our Keep A Breast team, Erica and Kassia Meador into her home in North County San Diego to be casted to support our efforts in breast cancer awareness. Tristen has a kind heart and it was a pleasure meeting and working with her. This was her second time being casting by Keep A Breast but this time her cast will play a part in a collection we are putting together now called Women of Rock & Soul. It will feature female musicians from all walks of the music industry from rock to hip hop to indie and blues. Keep your eyes peeled for Tristan on the road in 2010!
