Overview

Mission

To save lives by providing access to diagnostic and treatment services for breast cancer to low income, uninsured and under-insured individuals.

What it reported doing in 2024

The Bridge Breast Network (BBN) provided 1,075 individuals in 24 North Texas counties with navigation and access to breast health services. 35 new cases of breast cancer were diagnosed. We continue to see women being diagnosed with advanced breast cancer that have not had a mammogram since the pandemic. A total of 242 individuals received breast cancer treatment, post treatment and/or survivorship services. The BBN is able to provide early stage breast cancer treatment for approximately $22,000. BBN provided breast/health education to 4,650 individuals.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 87% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. Fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
