WIN ABC also has a satellite office in San Diego. The WIN organization was founded in 1994 by breast cancer survivor Elizabeth "Betsy" Mullen. Betsy was instrumental in the development, creation and continuation of the nation's first fundraising ("semi-postal") Breast Cancer Research Stamp. The historic stamp has already raised over $15 million toward breast cancer research over the last two years.
