McDonald's cares about our customers and the issues that matter to them. For several years, McDonald's USA has shown its support for breast cancer education, services, and research through a number of activities at the divisional, regional, and owner/operator level.
Now we are collaborating with Y-ME National Breast Cancer Organization and City of Hope Cancer Center to raise awareness and educate our customers about breast health and breast cancer. |

Beginning today, empower yourself and the women you love with breast health and breast cancer information from Y-ME National Breast Cancer Organization. It could safe a life.

- Discuss with your physician the right time for you to begin routine mammograms.
- Make sure that a clinical breast exam is part of your routine check up.
- Become aware of your body so you can determine if a change has occurred. A lump or change should never be ignored even though most are non-cancerous.
|
Don’t wait for your doctor to recommend a mammogram or clinical breast exam. Ask for them today! You deserve it.
A change you see or feel in your breast does not automatically mean you have breast cancer, but a lump should never be ignored. It is always best to talk to your doctor if you notice something different. |
|
- Breast cancer can develop at any age, but a woman’s risk increases with age.
- More than 70 percent of all women with breast cancer have no family history of the disease.
