Breast Cancer Research Stamp The Breast Cancer Research semipostal stamp was issued on July 29, 1998, at a first day ceremony held in the White House. It was the first semipostal in U.S. history. To date, the stamp has raised $31 million for breast cancer research. By law, 70 percent of the net amount raised is given to the National Institutes of Health and 30 percent is given to the Medical Research Program at the Department of Defense. Designed by Ethel Kessler of Bethesda, MD, the stamp features the phrases, "Fund the Fight" and "Find a Cure" and an illustration of a mythical "goddess of the hunt" by Whitney Sherman of Baltimore.   ORDER STAMP
