is a nonprofit organization partnered with Cancer Research Foundation(CRF) to help promote
thecureofbreastcancerandalsohelpallundeservedwomenrecoverfromthisdisease.

PROBLEM

Breast Cancer is the second mostcommontype ofcancerinAmericanwomen,afterskincancer,

today. In 2014, an estimated 232,030 cases of invasive breast cancer will be diagnosed in the
U.S. alone. So no matter who you are or where you live, understanding breast cancer is
important. But the most important thing to know is this: a diagnosis is not a death sentence.

So what is Breast cancer? When the natural systems in the human body begins to malfunction
where theres more cell growth than death occurs, it resultsintheabnormalgrowthofamassof
tissue which we call a malignant tumor, also called cancer. And when this abnormal growth of
cells or tissue happen in the breast, we call itbreastcancer.Some tumorsmay growslowlyand
some grow more aggressive. Breast cancer happens to grow slowly and it maytakeabouttento

suppliers, and manufacturers working together on a shared initiative to help all underserved

QUALIFICATIONS
I believe that Im qualified to do this proposal report on the nonprofit organization, All4One
Alliance. One reason as to why Im qualified to do this job is because as a
biochemistry/PrePharmacy major Im required to take classes where we are taught to write
research reports on several non profit health organizations and foundations that provides help

and serves its community through medical service. I have spent time researching andreviewing
thewebsiteandresearchedalotmoreontheirfoundationandphilanthropy.
RESOURCES
For this proposal report, I used the library resources that is provided by the UNT and NCTC
library to the students. Some of these resources arebooksandscholarlyarticlesonbreastcancer
and some were from medical magazines provided by the UNT biology and chemistry
department. I also used GALE and Ebsco to find articles regarding breast cancerandonseveral
organizationsthathelpedthecommunityfightoffthisdisease.
