Mission

The mission of What If…Carolyn Y. Adams Breast Cancer Foundation is to support breast cancer research, screening, treatment, and cures while helping reduce the impact of breast cancer for underserved and high-risk individuals throughout Illinois.

About the Organization

What If…Carolyn Y. Adams Breast Cancer Foundation was established in memory of Carolyn Y. Adams, who advocated for early detection and equal access to breast cancer treatment. The foundation supports breast cancer awareness, early detection, education, and scholarship opportunities for students who have lost a parent or guardian to breast cancer or have personally been diagnosed and treated for breast cancer.

Honor Their Life Through Giving

A charitable donation can be a way to honor a life. Some families choose to include a charity like Carolyn Y. Adams Breast Cancer Foundation as part of a Memoria Page or life story, especially when cancer was part of their experience. It can be a way to acknowledge that journey and offer support to others, in their memory. Including a cause is optional. It’s simply one of many ways to remember.
