Program areas at Bra Couture KC

Bra Couture KC (BCKC) mission is to raise funds to provide cancer care services not provided to uninsured/underinsured cancer patients in the Greater Kansas City area facing any cancer and to focus on cancer related disparity issues facing our uninsured community. BCKC is the only non-profit in Kansas City that has built two cancer service centers physically located within area hospitals, with a new one opening soon. These centers serve uninsured/underinsured patients and are managed by on-site nurse navigators. BCKC also funds: two Patients in Need Funds at The University of Kansas Cancer Center, the annual free mammogram program at Samuel U. Rodgers, services at Cancer Action, and holds 200 free mammograms each year for women in underserved communities with Imaging for Women. Through the generosity of our donors, we have raised more than $3 million over the past 13 years and cared for more than 14,000 cancer patients. The highest percentage of patients we serve are at or 200% below the federal poverty level. BCKC is primarily driven by volunteers. Over 150 volunteers and board members run BCKC's annual event and its programs throughout the year.
