Against the Tide is a major fundraising event for the MA Breast Cancer Coalition whose mission is to prevent breast cancer by identifying and eliminating toxic cancer-causing chemicals from the places where we and our children live, work, and play. The funds raised through Against the Tide help to support and expand the community education program Let’s Talk Prevention: Reducing Toxic Exposures, the MBCC Webinar Series, and the newly-expanded student environmental health program, Let’s Talk Prevention: Actions You Can Take. These programs are available online free of charge. For more information about MBCC and Against the Tide, visit mbcc.org.
