Pfizer joined the #InclusionPledge—an initiative that aims to hold organizations accountable for taking specific actions to eliminate disparities for Black women living with breast cancer. Today, we continue to work with community leaders to help eliminate health disparities among Black women.
"At Pfizer, our purpose is breakthroughs that change patients’ lives—all patients. We are committed to improving health outcomes for patients everywhere, including traditionally underserved and underrepresented communities such as women of color. From medical grants aimed at addressing health disparities, to policy-related initiatives, to educational resources for patients and healthcare professionals, Pfizer prioritizes partnering with Patient Advocacy Groups and large professional organizations to address the greatest challenges patients face and remove barriers to equitable care for all. We are grateful for the opportunity to join the #InclusionPledge and continue our efforts to collaborate with Tigerlily and many other stakeholders to meet the urgent and dynamic needs of breast cancer patients."
