Company overview

The founder and Executive Director of UBCF is Stephanie Mastroianni, who was inspired to form the organization after her mother died from breast cancer at the age of 42. According to the organization's IRS Form 990, Ms. Mastroianni, her father, Nicholas Mastroianni Sr., and her brother, Nicholas Mastroianni Jr., comprise the three members of the Board of Directors.

Charitable works

The UBCF raised $11,620,146 in charitable donations over the past 10 years. However, according to the Tampa Bay Times, who annually publish a list of "America's Worst Charities" (and who place UBCF at #35), over the past ten years, of that $11.5 million, $7.2 million was paid to solicitors, $5.6 million was sent to the charity, and only $796,308 was actually spent on programs for those suffering from breast cancer; just 6.3%. DailyKos also compiles a list of "America's 50 Worst Charities", and they place UBCF at #4.
