BENEFITING: YOUNG SURVIVAL COALITION INC
THE STORY:
Young Survival Coalition (YSC) is the number one go-to organization providing crucial support and resources for young women diagnosed with breast cancer. Breast cancer in younger women differs greatly from that in their older counterparts. Younger women face a world of unique challenges, including loss of fertility, body image issues, financial problems, more aggressive disease and higher mortality rates. At a time when a woman is just coming into her own, establishing her adult life – partnering, career, family… her world comes to a halt. YSC exists to help answer the questions, ease the fear, listen to the anger and help make an extremely frightening time a little more manageable. YSC wants no young woman to face breast cancer alone and we need your help to make that happen. Our reach is far and there is great need of our services, but we can’t do it without your support.
