B4BC (Boarding for Breast Cancer) continues its Shred the Love campaign this winter season through onsite and online events beginning this February and running through April. In an effort to unite the board sports community around an awesome philanthropic cause and active lifestyle, mountain resorts, campuses and community organizers will be hosting rail jams, learn-to-ride women's clinics, live music, entertainment, fundraising activities and everything in between in support of the Shred the Love campaign.

Fans on-site can purchase B4BC merchandise or add a $1 to lift ticket or retail purchases. Additionally B4BC’s Check One, Two® traveling outreach experience will setup at select locations and provide peer-to-peer breast health education and preventative information.

In the campaign’s second year, Shred the Love participation has doubled in size, with singular events raising as much as $20,000, like that of Holiday Valley in 2011. New this year is Paint for Peaks in Taos, New Mexico, selected by Yahoo as one of the top 5 creative breast cancer fundraising events of the year. Local breast health centers and cancer support organizations selected as beneficiaries by B4BC and organizers include Camp Good Days, Anita Salas Memorial Fund, Tahoe Forest Cancer Center, and the Dale & Frances Hughes Cancer Center.
