The Keep A Breast Foundation is a unique non-profit organization creating plaster forms of the female torso, customized by fine artists and auctioned to raise funding for breast cancer. Our mission is to produce art events that increase breast cancer awareness among young people and benefit breast cancer education, prevention and treatment programs in communities around the world.
Keep-a-Breast combines sculpture and unique artistry to bring breast cancer awareness to the people. The organization creates one-of-a kind plaster casts of the female torso that are then customized by fine artists and auctioned to raise funding for breast cancer awareness, research and treatment.
This original approach to fundraising for breast cancer was founded by Shaney Jo Darden and Mona Mukherjea-Gehrig in 2000. Keep A Breast has produced events across the globe raising thousands of dollars on behalf of local, national and international organizations such as the Young Survival Coalition, Susan G. Koman Foundation, The Breast Cancer Fund, Asha-Killgallen Fund, Kapi'olani Breast Center, and Europadonna, to name a few.
This approach and the artistry used is very inspiring to today's youth audience bringing much awareness to Breast Cancer.
