Hello and Welcome to the Helen Knoll Foundation, a non-profit dedicated to the prevention of breast cancer in young women.
We empower young women ages 18 – 40 to proactively manage their breast health today in order to reduce the occurrence of breast cancer tomorrow. We provide the tools, education, and advocacy needed to make a lasting impact on their future well-being.
The Helen Knoll Foundation started in 2006 to memorialize the life of Helen Knoll, who passed away at 48 years of age after two long battles with breast cancer.
The Helen Knoll Foundation is determined to help women of any age receive information and affordable access to the latest cancer screening technologies. The Foundation does this in the hopes of saving the lives of women across the country.

According to a groundbreaking study by UCSD, maintaining optimal levels of Vitamin D3 is crucial for reducing the risk of breast cancer in young women. The research reveals that higher blood concentrations of Vitamin D3 can significantly lower the chances of developing breast cancer, making early prevention through adequate sunlight exposure and supplementation a vital strategy for women under 40.
