As we pour millions into research
and invest all our hopes in vast programs to
find a cure, we are neglecting the golden opportunity
to PREVENT, even while we seek to cure ..

ALERT:
HUNTINGTON BREAST CANCER ACTION COALITION, INC. (HBCAC) DOES NOT TELEMARKET
HUNTINGTON BREAST CANCER ACTION COALITION INC., HAS NO ASSOCIATION WITH ANY GROUPS THAT HIRE TELEMARKETERS
Today, July 15th a solicitation phone call was received in the home of HBCAC’s President from a group calling themselves The Coalition Against Breast Cancer. The caller was reading from a script, and made it very difficult to interrupt to ask pertinent questions, such as: Are you a volunteer or a paid telemarketer; Where is your office located; How much funds go to support breast cancer services? The answer was a quick hang up. Part of the caller’s script mentioned their group as a Huntington coalition; subsequently we have received calls from members of our community who felt they were being targeted for financial support.
**Please note:
HBCAC does not and has never solicited the public through telemarketing to raise funds**
HBCAC has been serving our community for nearly 20 years and will continue providing breast health support services and programs to those affected by breast cancer. If you receive a phone call, please be aware that this group is not the Huntington Breast Cancer Action Coalition, Inc.
