With funds raised through the Indiana breast cancer license plate and other donations, we proudly invest hundreds of thousands of dollars each year for breast cancer screening, diagnostic and support programs in communities throughout Indiana.
Consider becoming part of our mission. Apply for a grant to address unmet breast cancer screening and diagnostic needs in your community. Applications are accepted from early August through late September each year. See the application for exact deadlines.
If you are an Indiana 501(c)3 non-profit organization that helps fulfill unmet breast health and breast cancer patient support needs in your community, consider completing an application for one of our grant programs. Application and Guidelines for 2026 are available now.
Our 2026 Breast Health Services Application for screening and diagnostic services is currently available. Be sure to download the 2026 Breast Health Services Program Guidelines for more information. We also encourage you to download our Grant Writing Manual which includes additional useful tips in preparing your 2026 application.
