For The Love Of Cups

For The Love Of Cups Everyone deserves to be supported and benefit from early detection. Roughly 50% of women over 40 have dense breasts and most don't know it.

FOR THE LOVE OF CUPS is a non profit 501c3 nonprofit organization ending disparities in breast cancer outcomes to improve and extend the quality of life for all survivors. Since the Covid-19 Pandemic began resources and support have been increasingly more difficult to access, especially for women facing breast cancer. Additionally, more women are delaying their routine screening appointments resulting in delayed access to care. Mammogram alone is not enough to detect breast cancer in women with dense breasts. There is no national standard requiring physicians to notify a woman of her breast density nor the follow up ultrasound screening required to more accurately determine her results. We empower women with the tools and resources they need to learn more about their risk factors and receive reliable screening methods. For women who have been diagnosed with breast cancer we offer support groups to help you through your journey. Please connect with us and we will send you the information. In order to truly make an impact to not only save lives but to improve the quality of life of breast cancer fighters and survivors Lisa formed For The Love Of Cups. Love is behind everything that Lisa believes in, it is her driving force. Inspired by her mom and motivated by her daughters she has made 4TLC her mission, to beat cancer so her daughters won't have to. Please join in and support this movement.

We’re starting in Seattle, SF Bay Area, and Los Angeles, then North Carolina, Arizona, Florida and New York with collaborative community events focusing on breast health and the inequities in dense breast tissue screening.

There’s a delay in care happening between the mammogram and the critical adjunct screening Breast Ultrasound or MRI for women diagnosed with dense breast tissue and it’s costing women their lives.

We’re launching new research for The Clear Pathways Program to fill this gap in care, particularly for women in high risk communities and partnering to provide the resources necessary to create access and ensure everyone receives the benefits of early detection.

👉 If you haven’t already binged this series, it’s time to dive in! I promise you will discover something new, be inspired and have a new resource to share with your network and community.

💗 Our first 11 episodes are live, with many more to come. Subscribe and view here: https://www.youtube.com//videos

Everyday, I’m reminded of how lucky I am to be here and do the work of amplifying these powerful voices, experts and experiences of women living with dense breast tissue, navigating barriers to care and creating solutions with The Clear Pathways Program to ensure everyone receives the benefits of an early breast cancer diagnosis.

For women with dense breast tissue, critical supplemental screening often feels like it’s locked behind insurance hurdles and confusing guidelines. This isn’t just frustrating. It’s dangerous.

That’s why we’re changing the way care gets delivered so no more women fall through this critical gap in care, through new research, community care events and strategic partnerships.

Today we’re looking to invite more members to our Advisory Board, if you’re passionate about moving this work forward please share this with your network and join us: https://www.breastdensitysummit.org/advisory-board-application

If you know an organization that would be a good fit to sponsor this series please reach out to connect us so we can amplify this work even more.

A huge thank you to the incredible voices that helped launch this series!

“We need to change how we talk about screening for breast cancer in dense breast tissue and call out what’s really happening... delay of care” There’s a silent crisis happening right now for up to 50% of women in the US who have dense breast tissue. These women are being failed by a system that makes the necessary supplemental screening nearly inaccessible, putting them at risk for delayed breast cancer diagnoses.

Here’s what we all need to know:
1. Standard mammograms often miss cancers in dense breast tissue, making supplemental screening crucial.
2. Insurance hurdles and confusing guidelines leave women navigating a maze just to get proper care.
3. Further delays in access are compounded by socioeconomic factors and race.
4. It doesn’t need to be this hard.

Our new program The Clear Pathways Program provides real solutions by removing these barriers for patients and advocating for systemic change within breast health centers.

When illness strikes, it’s not just one person—it’s a family crisis. Here’s what we often overlook.

Suddenly, the caregiver, the supporter, the breadwinner might have to take on new responsibilities overnight. Whether it’s breast cancer or something else just as devastating, a diagnosis doesn’t just affect the patient—it shifts every role around them.

It’s a ripple effect that often goes unnoticed and unspoken.

Understanding this can help us support loved ones better during tough times.

Ever felt the weight of this shift personally?

Let’s talk about how families navigate these storms together.

Launching the first of its kind research program to eliminate the delay of care and many barriers women face when diagnosed with dense breast tissue because, we believe that everyone deserves the benefit of early breast cancer detection.

The Clear Pathways Program (part 1) is getting right to the heart of the matter and heading straight into local communities to bridge this gap with a series of experiential wellness events and listening to women.

First up is Seattle! If you’d like to know more and invite us into your community or wellness center please reach out.

Together with our partners and we will:

🤌 Put resources directly into the hands of women to understand their mammogram, breast density type and navigate next steps
🤌 Work with local communities to eliminate the barriers and delays to adjunct screening access and care
🤌 Work with local organizations to provide resources specific to the needs of women facing barriers and delays to care
🤌 Provide additional resources to streamline communication between breast health centers and patients

What happens after a mammogram appointment is critical to ensuring that all women have been screened appropriately for her breast density type.

Most disparities in breast cancer outcomes don’t happen during treatment. One glaring disparity happens before and during a patient’s mammogram appointment, affecting the up to 50% of women with dense breast tissue, which is further compounded by access.

Leaving many women without the necessary information and resources they need for next steps if they have dense breast tissue. Even when they are notified of their breast density status it often doesn’t effectively communicate the critical need for adjunct screening, nor does it provide streamlined access to the breast ultrasound or breast MRI to adequately screen for breast cancer.

Far too many patients are being denied the opportunity of an accurate screening and possibly the benefits of an early breast cancer diagnosis because of this delay in care.

In our breast cancer survivorship community we always say it’s a club we didn’t ask to join and also don’t recommend, but if you do have to join us you’ll be met with a sisterhood like no other.

I’m humbled by the work ahead of us this year and also I’m incredibly grateful that I get to do it. The people that have become a part of my life because of my personal journey with breast cancer and the work I do in the nonprofit world and in women’s health space have been the most wonderful surprise and gift to come from this experience.

Today is a really important day. It’s a day we honor and celebrate the people improving cancer outcomes and the people we love facing cancer. As such it’s the first major fundraising day of 2026 for Cancer Nonprofits and it’s critical for sharing our work, our mission and making it possible for us to have an impact in the year a head.
 
Today we hope that you can help us reach our goal of $5,000 to help us fulfill that mission. Once you’ve made your contribution please share this with your network or better yet invite your organization to match the donations made!
