Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer in the UK, accounting for 16% of all diagnosed cancers in the nation. There are over 44,000 new cases of breast cancer diagnosed each year. That's 44,000 more families affected every single year. Of those, 12,500 families will lose someone to breast cancer this year. MBNA is doing something about it in alliance with Breakthrough Cancer. Their Breakthrough Cancer credit card has raised over £1 million to date for breast cancer research.
Make your spending count for something with the Breakthrough Cancer credit card from MBNA. The Breakthrough Cancer Visa card is a charity credit card that gives you all the expected benefits of other MBNA credit cards - low balance transfers and competitive interest rates along with a whole raft of super benefits - and helps in the fight to eradicate breast cancer. There are currently over 50,000 Breakthrough Cancer cards in circulation, and every time one of them is swiped at the till or used to pay at any merchant, Breakthrough Cancer rings up another donation.
Here's how the Breakthrough Cancer credit card lets you help in the fight against the disease that affects over 41,000 women in the UK each year.
- £40 to Breakthrough Cancer when you first use the card if you apply online (£5 if you apply by post)
- £2 to Breakthrough Cancer for each year you continue to use the credit card
- .25% of your total spend on the Breakthrough Cancer card contributed to Breakthrough Cancer
That means that no matter how you uses your Breakthrough Cancer credit card, you'll be helping defeat the disease that affects nearly fifty thousand UK families every year - without any additional cost to you at all. Join in and make a contribution to the cause. You can apply online through airaid.co.uk and get a £40 contribution for Breakthrough Breast Cancer the very first time you use your new charity credit card.
