Our impact this year

This year, the Lynne Cohen Foundation deepened its 27-year commitment to prevention through action: expanding clinical partnerships, advancing early detection research, & convening women & experts across the country to reimagine what equitable, preventive healthcare can look like. With every clinic visit, every conversation, & every study funded, we move closer to a world where no woman dies of cancer.

Thank you for being part of a movement that empowers women to know their bodies, understand their risks, and take proactive steps toward prevention. Together, we are reshaping women’s healthcare into a system that supports early action and lifelong wellbeing.

As we look to the year ahead, we invite you to invest in this work at a level that reflects its urgency & possibility. Every donation counts — we encourage activism at all levels — but a leadership gift of $5,000 – $20,000 directly strengthens our preventive care clinics, expands access for underserved women, and accelerates the research that saves lives.

ADVANCING CLINICAL CARE

1 in 8 women face breast cancer, & ovarian cancer carries one of the highest mortality rates. LCF is changing these numbers — one woman, one clinic visit, one community at a time.


49% of uninsured women delay care due to cost

39% of women develop cancer in their lifetime

# of Women Served by LCF Clinics Annually

Since its founding, the Lynne Cohen Foundation has supported preventive care clinics that have collectively served more than 30,000 women nationwide. Today, as our programs rebuild momentum post-pandemic, we are again seeing year-over-year increases in access and reach. From 2022 to 2025, patient volume across LCF-supported clinics has grown by more than 45%, with over 1,000 high-risk women receiving care in the 2024–2025 period alone.

“As a gynecologic oncologist, I have the privilege of seeing patients and families through some of the worst and best times of their lives — but truly an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure: Nothing beats telling a patient who has undergone a prophylactic surgery that they have decreased their risk of an almost inevitable cancer by 99%”
