💜 Our Hearts Are Full. 💜

What a way to celebrate 20 years of Alala!

To everyone who stopped by to celebrate with us, called, sent messages, shared memories, brought well wishes, raised a glass, gave us a hug, or simply cheered us on from afar…

THANK YOU.

Looking around yesterday and seeing so many faces that have been part of our story was incredibly special.

Some of you have been with us since the very beginning.

Some of you found us somewhere along the way.

And some of you are just beginning your journey with Alala.

But each of you is part of what has made these 20 years possible.

We’ve always said Alala is about so much more than bras, prostheses, and compression garments. It’s about people. It’s about relationships. It’s about showing up for one another during some of life’s hardest moments—and celebrating the victories together, too. 🥂

Yesterday, we got to do a whole lot of celebrating.

As we look through these pictures, we don’t just see an anniversary party.

We see our Alala family.

Thank you for trusting us, supporting us, believing in our mission, and allowing us to serve this community for 20 incredible years.

And we’re not finished yet. 💜

Every story has led us here.
Every warrior has shaped who we’ve become.
This is our War Cry.

Here’s to the next 20. 🥂

💜 Tomorrow is the Day... 💜
Tomorrow, we celebrate 20 years.

Twenty years of hugs.
Twenty years of hope.
Twenty years of friendships.
Twenty years of warriors.
Twenty years of serving a community we love.

As we've reflected on this milestone over the past few weeks, one thing has become abundantly clear...

Alala isn't our story.

It's yours.

It's the story of every warrior who trusted us after surgery. Every family member who walked through our doors searching for hope.

Every physician, therapist, nurse, volunteer, and community partner who believed in our mission. Every employee—past and present—who poured their heart into caring for others. And every friend who cheered us on along the way.

Tomorrow, we'll raise a glass, enjoy a cupcake (or two! 🧁), share some memories, and celebrate the incredible community that has made these last 20 years possible. Whether you were with us in the very beginning or just found us this year. We'd love to celebrate with you.

Stop by, say hello, enjoy some sweet treats,enjoy some giveaways, and let us thank you in person for being part of the Alala family. Because milestones are meant to be shared.

And this one belongs to all of us.

💜 Every story has led us here.
Every warrior has shaped who we've become.
This is our War Cry.

20 Years of Courage, Connection, and Care 💜
This week, we are celebrating 20 years of Alala—and we keep coming back to one truth: We would not be here without the warriors who trusted us. You allowed us into some of the most personal moments of your lives. You shared your fears, your victories, your questions, your laughter, and sometimes your tears. You taught us that healing is not one-size-fits-all. Sometimes healing looks like finding the right garment. Sometimes it looks like feeling comfortable in your own skin again.
Sometimes it is simply having someone listen and remind you that you are not alone.

So this week, we want to celebrate with you. Warriors who stop by for an appointment this week will have a chance to enjoy special giveaways as part of our anniversary celebration. Call us to schedule your visit, come see us, and let us thank you in person for being part of the Alala story.

This is not just a celebration of how far Alala has come. It is a celebration of every person who helped us become who we are.

🎉 One Week - In just 7 days, we'll celebrate 20 years of serving the most incredible warriors, families, physicians, therapists, and friends we could have ever imagined. Twenty years ago, we opened our doors with one mission.

To make sure no one walked through breast cancer or lymphedema alone.

What we never imagined were the friendships we'd make...
The hugs we'd share
The tears we'd wipe away
The victories we'd celebrate

Next Friday isn't just about celebrating 20 years of Alala.

It's about celebrating YOU.

If you've ever been a patient
Referred a patient
Worked beside us
Prayed for us
Or simply cheered us on

We hope you'll stop by and celebrate with us.

💜 Join us for our 20th Anniversary Drop-In Celebration!

📅 Friday, August 7
⏰ 8:30-12:30 in Charleston and
⏰9:00- 2:00 in Columbia

We can't wait to hug your neck.
Because after 20 years
You're not just our community.

You're our family.

💜 20 Years of Alala: Keeping It in the Family 💜
Twenty years ago, if you had told me that one day my entire family would be working alongside me at Alala - I probably would have laughed. 😊 But here we are.
It started with Emily. Then, two years ago, Michael joined our team. Last year, Ron decided to come aboard. Now the question I hear more than any other is...
"How does THAT work?" 😂
Honestly, It works because we don't all do the same job. Each of us has different strengths, different responsibilities, and different gifts that help move Alala forward.
But more importantly, Whenever we disagree about a decision or the direction Alala should take, we always come back to one thing: Our mission. If a decision helps us serve our patients better, if it helps a warrior feel seen, supported, educated, or loved, then we know we're on the right path. That mission has settled more conversations than any family debate ever could.
And here's the beautiful part, our family doesn't stop with the people who share our last name. The incredible team at Alala has become family, too. We're each other's biggest cheerleaders. We celebrate birthdays, weddings, babies, and victories. We carry each other through difficult days. We're the shoulder to cry on. The "big sister" who tells you what you need to hear. The friend who says, "Let's pray about it." And the one who reminds you that you're never walking alone.
Twenty years ago, I dreamed of building a company. I never imagined God was really building a family. And for that, I will always be grateful.
“Family isn't always who you're born with. Sometimes it's the people who choose to fight beside you every single day."
💜 This is our War Cry.
"Unless the Lord builds the house, the builders labor in vain."
— Psalm 127:1

💜 Warrior Wednesday: Meet Beth Harris 💜
Some people fight their own battles. Beth fights for everyone else's, too.
When someone is newly diagnosed with breast cancer and needs someone who truly understands, When a woman is scared, overwhelmed, or simply needs to hear, "You're going to get through this", Beth never hesitates.
Her answer is almost always the same:"Absolutely. I'd be happy to talk with her."
That is just who Beth is.
At just 33 years old, Beth's life changed forever when she was diagnosed with Stage III breast cancer. She endured 8 rounds of chemotherapy, 35 radiation treatments, and 13 surgeries. Yet through every challenge, she refused to let cancer define her.
Instead - She became one of the strongest voices of encouragement our breast cancer community has ever known. For years, Beth has volunteered her time to encourage newly diagnosed women, helping them find hope when they need it most. She reminds them that they are not alone, and she gives them something priceless—someone who has walked the same road and understands.
And if that wasn't enough, this past year, Beth stepped into another role. She became a warrior once again—this time fighting beside her husband after his diagnosis with pancreatic cancer. She has shown us what courage looks like. What faith looks like. What unconditional love looks like.
At Alala, we often talk about our War Cry.
If you've ever met Beth, you know, Her War Cry isn't just heard.
It's LIVED!
Thank you, Beth, for reminding us that warriors don't just survive—they reach back and help the next person climb. We are honored to know you, to work alongside you, and to call you our friend.
💜 Today, we celebrate YOU.
"A warrior's roar isn't measured by its volume, but by the courage that echoes through every life they touch."
