A Quarter an Order
At Next Step, we believe in giving back. That is why every year we donate a portion of every order to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation.
The Breast Cancer Research Foundation is a nonprofit organization committed to achieving the end of breast cancer. They provide critical funding for cancer research worldwide to fuel advances in tumor biology, genetics, prevention, treatment, metastasis, and survivorship.
