Believe "It is what gets me through the day. If I didn't have belief I would not have the hope and without hope one may as well give up and that is something I just cannot do." — Anita Bassett Cochrane

“When you push off from the dock… we’re all in the same boat. This isn’t about cancer anymore. It’s about exercise and health and the rest of your life. When we push off we’re paddling away from breast cancer.” — Dr. Don McKenzie, Founder, Abreast In A Boat

It is through the generosity of these individuals and corporations that AIAB is able to keep our membership fees affordable and undertake all of the outreach and education and awareness activities so critical to our mission.

We would like to extend special recognition to the following:
