WHY WE'RE FUNDRAISING WITH THE JIMMY FUND WALK TO FIGHT CANCER
A cancer diagnosis is life-altering for most people, but young adults with breast cancer often face other unique challenges including:
• Dealing with concerns about future fertility
• Considering genetic risks in treatment and prevention decisions
• Parenting young children
• Finishing school, managing a career, and building relationships
WHO WE ARE:
Young and Strong is the first and only program of its kind in the world. Our mission is to provide expert medical care as well as social, emotional, and educational support to facilitate optimal treatment, supportive care, and education focused on the unique issues facing young adults and their loved ones, throughout the cancer care trajectory.
WHERE THE MONEY GOES:
Your support goes directly to our program and enables us to enhance our program's offerings and initiatives that serve the young breast cancer community. To learn more about us, please visit our website.
ALL ARE WELCOME:
Anyone is welcome to join our team! Whether you have been diagnosed with cancer, are a loved one of someone diagnosed with cancer, or simply someone who supports our mission, we look forward to walking with you (in-person or virtually) on October 6.
