Early detection saves lives. No woman should have to go without a life-saving cancer screening because of a lack of insurance.

All Care Health Center is incredibly grateful for the partnerships of Bras for the Cause and Care for Yourself, whose support helps All Care ensure uninsured women have access to cervical cancer screenings and mammograms. Together, these organizations are helping remove barriers to preventive care so more women can receive screenings that detect cancer early, when treatment is often most effective.

If you or someone you know has delayed recommended cancer screenings because of a lack of insurance, contact All Care to learn about available resources and eligibility.

You can also support this important work by participating in the Bras for the Cause “B4” Bike Ride on August 30, beginning at Captain Roy’s in Des Moines. The event raises both awareness and funds to help provide mammograms, cervical cancer screenings, and other lifesaving programs for uninsured and underinsured Iowans. Every dollar raised stays in Iowa to support local access to care.
