The Breast Cancer Fund of Ohio was founded by survivors of breast cancer. This organization distributes money that is made from the sales of Ohio Breast Cancer license plates to groups in Ohio for emergency financial help to patients. The Breast Cancer Fund of Ohio has six core values which include the following:
1. Access to all the appropriate care you need when you need it.
2. Information that is complete and correct.
3. Choice about providers, treatment, and services.
4. Respect from everyone in the health care and support services system.
5. Accountability so there is a way to identify and fix problems.
6. Improvement in the system so care continues to get better.

I choose this organization because breast cancer has affected several members of my family and I find it very important to get the word out about breast cancer and help those with breast cancer get the best care they can get.
