Sixteen-year-old Isabel Rosario is dedicated to raising awareness about breast cancer, and that it affects men, too. Her grandfather, Leandro Montalvo, was diagnosed in 2019, and it came as a shock to their family.

Since Leandro’s diagnosis, Isabel has worked to educate and create awareness around breast cancer in men. She has been a Girl Scout for 11 years and her Gold Award, the highest recognition a Girl Scout can earn – is “The One Percent: A Human Race Breast Cancer Awareness Project.” She created a ribbon that is 1% blue, 99% pink. Isabel is also working with the Puerto Rican government to get an official day in October recognized as Male Breast Cancer Awareness Day.

Leandro started treatment in December 2019. It’s included chemotherapy, a right breast mastectomy and radiotherapy. “My grandfather is a warrior and a survivor,” Isabel said.
