What is Buddy Check?

Buddy Check is a program to promote breast health. We'll even send you a simple reminder to do a breast self-exam.

How it Works

  • Find a buddy -- a family member, friend, or co-worker.
  • On the 11th of each month, call your buddy and remind each other to do a breast self-exam.
  • If you find a lump, call your physician.
