Blossom of Hope 2021 Campaign
Join the Pink Wave!
Our purpose again in 2021 is to focus on diagnosis and treatment and raise funds to improve breast cancer outcomes, with the specific goal of covering the cost of one full year of breast tissue markers, critical to optimal care and yet not covered by the State.
The main event will be an in-person gala hosted in October 2021, International Breast Cancer Awareness Month, complemented by a raffle and auction, and preceded by a number of other events.

About Blossom of Hope
Lithuania sees 1700 new breast cancer cases every year, the most common cancer in women with a 10% lifetime risk.
Despite the incidence rate of breast cancer in Lithuania being below the European average, the mortality rate is higher than the European average
(Ferlay, J et al, 2018).
90% of women with breast cancer recover with early detection and the best available treatment and care.
For the past 13 years, IWAV has mobilized the Lithuanian and international business, artistic, diplomatic and medical communities around supporting breast cancer care in Lithuania. Over the course of its first 12 years, Blossom of Hope has raised 260 000€ to purchase and distribute free medical supplies for cancer diagnostics to leading hospitals.
