Breast cancer is a type of cancer that starts in the breast; the cancer forms in either the lobules or the ducts of the breast. Lobules are the glands that produce milk and ducts are the pathways that bring the milk from the glands to the nipple. Cancer can also occur in the fatty tissue or the fibrous connective tissue within the breast.

NGOs are “legal or social entities created for the purpose of producing goods and services whose status does not permit them to be a source of income, profit or other financial gain for the units that establish, control or finance them” (System of National Accounts in 1993).
