BREASTFEST ® GENERAL OVERVIEW

This annual benefit for breast cancer research and awareness is held in Los Angeles
and features hot rock acts and other talent. 

100% of the proceeds from sponsorships, donations, ticket sales and merchandise go towards breast cancer research in Southern California. 

Throughout the years, BreastFest has featured gold and platinum artists including:

The Exies, Duncan Sheik, Stephan Jenkins of Third Eye Blind, Abra Moore, Grant Lee Phillips (formerly of Grant Lee Buffalo), and Daniel Ashe of Love & Rockets. 

The events have been featured on MTV News (click to see the story), L.A. radio station KROQ’s “Doc on the Roq”, the Mark & Brian radio program (nationally syndicated from Los Angeles) and a variety of local/national news shows and magazines.  Attending the shows have been music fans from all over, along with celebrities, entertainment industry execs and others personally connected to the cause. 

The concerts have been sponsored by high profile companies including:

Earthlink, Stolichnaya Vodka and L.A.’s Star 98.7.  We’ve managed to build a strong volunteer network of people dedicated to bring our message to a younger generation.  With each year, we strive to use the momentum that we’ve gained from the previous years and take the event to a new level of media awareness.   
 

BREASTFEST ® OBJECTIVES

  • To raise money to benefit cancer research through the UCLA/Jonsson Cancer Center Foundation.
     
  • Our charity is all volunteer - 100% of proceeds go to the cancer center.

  • To increase awareness about breast cancer.

  • To utilize popular music to tap into the younger generation and educate this particular demographic about risks, early detection and the seriousness of this deadly disease. 

  • To have the event serve as a resource for women of all ages and those with loved ones at risk by providing literature, contacts and important information.
BREASTFEST ®
             

targets a younger generation of people which, when it comes to breast cancer awareness, does not seem to be tapped into adequately.  Everyone should be exposed to new information about diet, genetic research and advancements in medicine at a young age as opposed to learning “the hard way” later on in life. 

The strength of those who get behind us will determine how effective our event will be each year.  Please help us to spread awareness, advance treatment and find a cure for this awful disease that has greatly affected all of us who have initiated this project.
