Gift Cards For Vanilla Visa & BCRF 5-Year Partnership

Giving a gift always feels good, but in the month of October, it’s even more powerful. That’s because, for our fifth year, Vanilla Gift is partnering with the Breast Cancer Research Foundation (BCRF) in support of its work to advance the world’s most promising research to eradicate breast cancer. Not only in October, but throughout the year the purchase fees of our BCRF Flowers Visa Gift Card and Pink Ribbon Visa Gift Card are donated back to BCRF. Read more about the BCRF’s mission and how they’re making a difference in the fight against this devasting disease that has affected the lives of millions of people.

What is BCRF?

Founded in 1993, BCRF began its mission to “prevent and cure breast cancer by advancing the world’s most promising research.” Evelyn Lauder, one of the founders of the BCRF Foundation, created the signature pink ribbon that people have come to recognize as a symbol of breast cancer awareness.

Breast Cancer Research Is Critical

Did you know more than 310,000 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer this year alone? Around the world, a woman is given a breast cancer diagnosis every 14 seconds, according to BCRF. As the largest private funder of breast cancer research worldwide, BCRF’s continued work is essential to deepen knowledge and enhance breast cancer treatment options. This is made possible by donations from individuals and organizations all around the world.

Vanilla Gift’s Commitment to the Cure

Vanilla Gift believes in giving back. By supporting philanthropic causes like breast cancer research, we champion working together. We are pleased to celebrate five years of collaboration with BCRF, which started in 2019 with the launch of the BCRF Flowers Visa Gift Card and Pink Ribbon Gift Card. Each time you order these cards — available as an eGift Card or plastic Gift Card — 100% of the purchase fees are donated to BCRF’s continued research to prevent, treat and save lives from breast cancer.

Your Support Matters

With each purchase, you are funding BCRF’s top minds to accelerate progress from every angle, from Heredity & Ethnicity to Survivorship and Treatment. BCRF funds more than 250 researchers spanning 14 countries and five continents who are working to tackle this complex disease by understanding how to fight it, slow it and, one day, stop it from occurring altogether.
