All Proceeds benefiting Metavivor, supporting metastatic breast cancer research, support, and advocacy
Join us at the Pittsburgh Metsquerade, a fundraiser with dancing, dinner, and auctions. All proceeds support research improving the quantity and quality of life of people living with metastatic breast cancer (MBC).
The Metsquerade is lovingly dedicated in memory of Laura Williams, Roberta L. Szpara, Bindy Koontz, Lori Czyzewski Haberstroh, Andrea Dimond, Jill Griffin, Amy Fletcher, and Sophia Holland; who all fought tirelessly for MBC research.
METAvivor is a volunteer-led, non-profit organization promoting awareness, offering support, and funding vital research to improve the longevity and quality of life of MBC patients.
Meet our MBC community: Take a look into the lives of people who are living with metastatic breast cancer and help us remember and honor those who have passed away.
More than 40,000 men and women from the United States die each year from metastatic breast cancer, yet only five to ten percent of cancer-related funding goes toward research for the treatment of metastatic breast cancer.
