Breastaurant Tour

Cheers to Another Great Year!

With heartfelt gratitude, we wrap up another impactful Breastaurant Tour! From raising breast cancer awareness to supporting health equity, your contributions made a real difference in our community. Equal Hope is already planning next year’s event, and we’d love for you to join us.

If you’re a restaurant or organization passionate about women’s health, partner with us! Join the Breastaurant Tour 2025 and help us continue the fight for equal health access.



Raise a Fork to Fund Breast Cancer Services in Our Community.

This unique event combines culinary experiences with charitable giving, allowing us to make a difference one meal at a time. Restaurants on the tour donate 10% of proceeds from chosen date(s) in October. These proceeds will directly fund healthcare and wellness services to those in need.

Why support breast cancer?

Breast cancer remains a significant health concern in our community:

• In Illinois, breast cancer is the most common cancer in women and the second leading cause of cancer death in women

• In Illinois, breast cancer incidence rates are highest in Black and White women and lowest in Hispanic women, and mortality rates are highest in Black women and lowest in Hispanic and Asian or Pacific Islander women

These statistics underscore the urgent need for increased awareness, early detection, and improved access to care.

Join the Fight: Every Bite Brings Hope.
