Brest Friends | AEIACAD Permit No. PRHCE-000004416

Brest Friends in partnership with Al Jalila Foundation is a forerunner in raising awareness on the importance of early detection of breast cancer, furthering patient support with medical treatment and investing in local breast cancer research.

Brest Friends is the first breast cancer support group in the UAE established in 2005 by Dr Houriya Kazim, the UAE's first female surgeon, where patients and survivors meet monthly to learn, share experiences and offer moral and emotional support to each other which has shown to be instrumental in a woman's healing process.

Through partnership with Al Jalila Foundation in 2015, Brest Friends is further empowered to fulfil its goals and raise funds for breast cancer research and treatment in the UAE.

Raising money for Giving Hope to Breast Cancer Patients

Giving Hope to Breast Cancer Patients

Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women with 1 in 8 women being diagnosed in their lifetime.

Studies show that the average age of diagnoses is 10 years younger in the UAE than elsewhere in the world. These statistics reaffirm the critical need for research to keep up with the latest advances in treatment to save patients' lives.

Advances in research offer hope and healing to countless women diagnosed every year and all funds raised are used to accelerate breast cancer research and provide treatment to patients in need.
