What We Do
What We Do
Our mission and purpose is to honor the memory and continue the legacy of our daughter by easing the financial burden of women diagnosed with Metastatic Breast Cancer and their children.
Inform & Educate
Inform & Educate
Of the billions of dollars raised for Breast Cancer research, only 2%-5% is directed specifically towards the Metastatic Breast Cancer patient. We can only change this through education and awareness.

“
Your project is amazing and every year you bend over backwards to provide a wonderful holiday for some of our patients and their the children (sometimes grieving children). I also recognize how difficult it is when we provide a name at the last minute and you scramble so that no one is left out. Thank you for your wonderful and generous work and it is such a tribute to Kady and her legacy.

Compassion ~ Support ~ Education
Although our primary mission is to support women with Metastatic Breast Cancer (MBC), we also recognize the desperate need to bring awareness and education about MBC. If you know someone who has died from Breast Cancer, they actually died from Metastatic Breast Cancer. MBC/Stage 4 is when the cancer spreads outside the breast, most commonly to the liver, lungs,
bones, and/or brain and there is no cure. 100% of Breast Cancer deaths occur after metastasis. In the U.S. alone more than 40,000 beautiful lives are lost each year. While only 6%-10% of initial Breast Cancer diagnoses are metastatic, 30% of patients diagnosed with early stage Breast Cancer will eventually develop MBC and die.
The Sad Truth
The Sad Truth
MBC is the elephant in the pink room of Breast Cancer. Unfortunately, fear, ignorance, greed, politics, misinformation and a host of other reasons are contributing to the facts you see remaining unchanged in the last 30 years. MBC patients are the biggest and most effective advocates for the changes and awareness desperately needed. They're painfully aware that a breakthrough of any kind will likely not occur before this disease claims their beautiful lives, but they are relentlessly advocating so that our collective daughters, mothers, sisters, and friends will have a fighting chance to live. Before our daughter was stolen by MBC, we didn't understand the need for more research and education. Now that we know better, we must do better and we're compelled to do our part to help bring about the changes needed. The Kady Haynes Beauty for Ashes Project proudly supports and endorses the ONLY organization wholly devoted to MBC research, where 100% of all donations are used towards funding research grants specifically targeting MBC.
