We Need Your Help!

We began this fund in 2009 to help uninsured and under insured women receive breast imaging. We have paid for mammograms, breast ultrasound, breast biopsies and breast MRI. We receive referrals from physician offices and/or hospital staff throughout the area. We have helped cancer patients pay utility bills, house payments, cancer medications, etc.

Without the support of our community, it would be impossible to raise the much-needed funds.

For 10 years we put on The Pink Ribbon Celebration, and this year are doing a new event "Comedy Kicks Cancer". With just one fundraiser per year, and the growing need for assistance, it's hard to raise enough money to fill as many needs as we would like.

Every little bit helps! Please consider attending our event on November 14th or making a monetary donation here. ~ God Bless.
