Breast Cancer Research Stamp "Fund the Fight, Find a Cure" This stamp is on sale by the U.S. Postal Service to help fund breast cancer research. Please consider using these stamps, as it is vitally important that we take a stand against this disease that kills and maims so many of our wives, mothers, sisters, and friends. Instead of the normal $0.41 per stamp, this one costs $0.55 per stamp. The differential goes to breast cancer research. Seventy percent of the differential is transferred to the National Institutes of Health (NIH), and 30 percent of the differential is transferred to the Medical Research Program of the Department of Defense (DoD). To date, more than $54 million has been raised for research from sales of the Breast Cancer Research stamp. Please help fight this terrible disease.
