The DONNA Foundation participates in a variety of community outreach and education programs, and hosts several fundraising events to support its mission. To date, it has served more than 15,500 families in need and dispersed more than $4.2 million of debt relief, moving families from a place of fear to a place of love.
In 2015, Mayo Clinic announced the widely-publicized Triple Negative Breast Cancer Vaccine Trials, a project made possible in part by The DONNA Foundation. Ongoing funding, resulting from a portion of the monies raised DONNA Marathon Weekend, make it possible for the laboratory team not only to conduct state-of-the-art breast cancer research, but also provide genomics support for studies in all cancers.
