VANS BREAST CANCER AWARENESS COLLECTION

10/15/2019

1 in 8 Canadian women will develop breast cancer during their lifetime. Detecting it early on can significantly improve chances of survival and recovery.

A portion of proceeds will be donated to CoppaFeel! Support the cause.

This season, Vans is spreading awareness about the importance of early detection. They’re donating a minimum of $200,000 of proceeds from their all-new Breast Cancer Awareness collection to CoppaFeel!, a UK-based charity that educates young people on the signs and symptoms of breast cancer.

CoppaFeel! was founded in 2009 by twin sisters Kristin and Maren Hallenga. At the age of 23, Kristen herself was diagnosed with breast cancer, not realizing at the time that women her age could even be affected. From there, she made it her mission to help educate young people on the disease and what to look out for, using her story to stress the importance of being proactive about your health.

We’re thrilled to be able to support this important cause. You can shop our Vans collection here. And remember: get checked.
