One in Eight Women


What would you spend on a new pair of jeans? That's how much it costs to fight breast cancer. Did you know that one in eight women in the U.S. will be diagnosed with breast cancer in her lifetime? That's one every three minutes. With your help, we could change that number. If an organization in your local area is hosting a Lee Denim Day please support them. If not, you can go to denimday.com to make your donation now.

Lee National Denim Day® is one of the largest single-day fundraisers for breast cancer. On Oct. 7, millions of people nationwide will donate to the cause and slip into their favorite jeans to support the Women's Cancer Programs of EIF, who are bringing together world-class scientists to develop an early detection blood test; to work in Lee Labs nationwide to find less toxic, more effective treatments for breast cancer patients; and to fund the Cancer Support Community.
