Breast Cancer Detection Center Of Alaska Needs To Raise Funds To Receive Grant

The Breast Cancer Detection Center of Alaska is looking to raise a matching amount of money to qualify for a $248,000 grant. The M.J. Murdock Charitable Trust will award the BCDC the grant so it upgrade the technology in its mobile mammography truck, if the BCDC can raise $116,597 in donations and earned income from services by November 20, 2015.

If the grant is secured the money will go to purchase and install breast tomosynthesis technology in their mobile mammography truck. The truck will offer state-of-art breast image technology to people in remote communities.

The technology can take very detailed pictures of breast tissue from various angles, and is a significant improvement to the technology the mobile mammography truck currently has. The technology would offer earlier detection and would allow for earlier intervention.

The total cost for for the equipment is $496,656. The BCDC will cost a fundraising gala at the Westmark Hotel October 3, 2015 to raise the additional needed funds.

Tickets are available and can be purchased for $125 at the center on 1905 Cowles Street, by phone at 479-3909, or online at A Gala Affair.
