Thanks to early detection and improved treatments, breast cancer death rates in the United States have dropped by more than 40 percent since 1990. Today, the five-year survival rate for localized cases is above 90 percent. These advances are saving lives every day and represent real progress in the fight against breast cancer.

This week we invite you to be part of Marblehead Turns Pink for Ellie, a town-wide campaign supporting awareness of the services provided by the Ellie Fund.

The Fund ensures that patients can fully benefit from medical progress by providing transportation, meals, and family support that make treatment accessible.
