GIVE BACK GRANT PROGRAM MANAGER

About The Keep A Breast Foundation: With the aim of reducing breast cancer risk through art, education, prevention, and action, The Keep A Breast Foundation (KAB) has been operating globally for more than two decades.

About The KAB Give Back Grant program: Different communities are disproportionately impacted by breast cancer and other diseases in different ways. These issues need to be vocalized and addressed in order to incite change. For example, while breast cancer is more common in white women, the mortality rate for Black women remains higher.

The KAB Give Back Grant program seeks to counteract the injustice and inequality in the healthcare system through financial aid for BIPOC women who are survivors or who are diagnosed with breast cancer.

In order to keep pace with our fastest growing program to-date and ensure comprehensive management, Keep A Breast (KAB) is looking for a manager ready to mobilize, bring the best of themselves to this program, and have a hand in its dynamic development.
