Through the collaboration with Y-ME and City of Hope Cancer Center, McDonald's continues to assist in the fight against breast cancer by educating women and their families about the disease.

In 2007, with the support of The Coca-Cola Company (DASANI®), McDonald’s restaurants nationwide showcased educational table tents during Mother's Day featuring early detection messages and contact information for breast cancer support. Championed by the McDonald's Women’s Operator Network and Women's Leadership Network, McDonald’s fight against breast cancer expanded from the restaurants to McDonald’s USA Web site in May with the launch of a breast cancer awareness page at www.mcdonalds.com/usa/good/community/bca.html. This page featured early detection tips from Y-ME, links to important breast cancer resources and information from Dean Ornish, M.D., founder, president and director of the non-profit Preventive Medicine Research Institute.

Thank you for joining McDonald's in its nationwide effort to raise awareness about breast cancer.
