The holiday season is a time of giving, and there’s no better way to spread cheer than by supporting a cause close to your heart. If you or someone you know has experienced a breast cancer diagnosis, then you may be considering a fundraiser in support of breast cancer care.  

The American Breast Cancer Foundation (ABCF) provides access to lifesaving breast cancer screenings and treatment for underserved individuals. By hosting a holiday fundraiser for ABCF, you can make a meaningful impact while celebrating the season of generosity.

Here are five simple fundraising ideas you can try this month to support ABCF:

Host a Festive Gift Wrapping Station

How It Works:

• Offer a gift-wrapping service for family, friends, or your community.
• Set up a station at a local event, your workplace, or even in your neighborhood, and ask for donations in exchange for wrapping presents.
• Try posting about your idea on social media; people may even bring their unwrapped gifts directly to your home!

Create and Sell Holiday Treats

How It Works:

• Bake cookies, cupcakes, or other festive treats and sell them at a local market, school, or holiday party.
• Add a note explaining that proceeds will go to ABCF.
• Everyone loves holiday sweets, and this is a delicious way to raise awareness and funds!

Organize a “Pink Christmas” Themed Event

How It Works:

• Host a holiday gathering with a pink theme—pink decorations, pink drinks, and pink attire!
• Charge a small entry fee or encourage attendees to donate to ABCF when they arrive.

Run a Holiday Donation Drive

How It Works:

• Encourage your workplace, school, or community to donate to ABCF instead of exchanging gifts this year.
• Share the impact of their contributions by highlighting how donations help provide mammograms and other critical care to those in need.
• People love knowing their contributions make a tangible difference, especially during the season of giving.
