The
AiRS Foundation is a non-profit 501c3 organization dedicated to providing women access to information, options and funding for breast reconstruction surgery. Our vision is to advocate, educate and support women who cannot afford this procedure. Restorative breast surgery is a vital part of total physical and emotional healing for many breast cancer survivors,yet:
- Less than 50% of all women requiring a mastectomy are currently offered breast reconstruction surgery
- Up to 70% of those who desire it don’t have the insurance or other resources to cover it
- Only 40% of women diagnosed with breast cancer get reconstruction
