Lobular Breast Cancer Alliance (LBCA): A Project of Social and Environmental Entrepreneurs (SEE)

The Lobular Breast Cancer Alliance (LBCA) engages patients, clinicians, and researchers to increase knowledge of lobular breast disease and promote lobular breast cancer research. LBCA was founded by a national network of patient-advocates with invasive lobular breast cancer (ILC).

LBCA’s small but growing professional staff include an executive director, a chief operating officer and volunteer coordinator, and a communications director. We utilize contractors and consultants to supplement our efforts. We also work with volunteers from across the U.S. who are patients with lobular breast cancer, their loved ones, and other individuals with an interest in breast cancer advocacy and research. LBCA is advised by an international Scientific Advisory Board of researchers and clinicians who focus on lobular breast cancer.

LBCA is funded solely by generous donations from patients and individuals who have been impacted by lobular breast cancer and grants and contributions from foundations and other 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organizations. LBCA is a fiscally sponsored organization and has tax exempt status as a project of Social and Environmental Entrepreneurs (SEE), a registered public charity. Learn more about LBCA’s fiscal sponsor and its mission to incubate and cultivate promising new organizations with the potential to make meaningful change.
