Annual Mattress Giveaway by UBCF

The United Breast Cancer Foundation (UBCF) is proud to announce its seventh consecutive year of providing support to breast cancer patients and survivors through a charitable mattress giveaway event in Louisville, Kentucky. Scheduled for Saturday, November 22, 2025, at the Mall St. Matthews, UBCF will distribute 160 therapeutic queen-size mattresses at no cost to qualified and pre-approved recipients.

A Comforting Gesture

The importance of comfort during recovery cannot be overstated, especially for those battling breast cancer. Studies have shown that restorative sleep is crucial for healing and emotional well-being. Thus, UBCF’s initiative is designed to alleviate one of the many burdens faced by breast cancer patients, helping them rest more easily and improving their overall quality of life.

The giveaway will take place at the Mall St. Matthews, where the organization has teamed up with local businesses and volunteers, including the Derby City Dragons, a breast cancer survivor dragon boat team. This collaboration emphasizes community spirit, with volunteers rallying together to support individuals facing the challenges of breast cancer. Notably, local partner Brookfield Properties has generously provided the event space, demonstrating their commitment to community engagement.
