Breast Connect, Inc.

You’re not alone in this battle. Breast Connect, Inc. offers a supportive online community for women impacted by breast cancer. Whether you’re navigating your own breast cancer journey, or want to help someone in your life who has been affected, this nonprofit organization in Knoxville, TN, is here to answer your questions, provide educational information, and connect you with financial assistance resources.

Breast Connect first began in 2014 with a group of survivors who called themselves the “Happy Hour for a Cure.” What started as a support group soon became a full-service virtual nonprofit organization for women in the area. This organization seeks to inspire confidence and hope in women, provide support during critical times, and serve as a one-stop shop for high-quality, informative resources.

Pay it forward and become a mentor in their Sisterhood Program. This program is designed to help newly diagnosed patients in the East Tennessee area. If you’re a survivor, your support and advice could be empowering and educational for women who are going through the same experience. To become a “sister,” in their program, you must be a survivor who has already completed treatments. If you need a mentor, know that this nonprofit organization will always match you with a sister who is best suited for your needs.

In addition to their educational resources and mentorship programs, this nonprofit organization also hosts a wide array of cancer charity events. The goal is to spread awareness and raise money to help women who have been diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer. Their past events include:

* Kayaking with cancer

* Knoxville race for the cure

* Making strides
