Breast Friends Partners with Know Your Lemons for Breast Health Education and Awareness
We are thrilled to continue our partnership with Breast Friends to further our shared mission of promoting breast health education and awareness. As a nonprofit organization based in Oregon, Breast Friends is dedicated to ensuring that no one has to face breast cancer alone. Since their founding in 2000, Breast Friends has been committed to providing education, support, and a strong community for individuals navigating the challenges of a breast cancer diagnosis.
Their mission is simple yet powerful: to empower women through every step of their journey, offering hope and connection when it is needed most. Together, we are able to support each other in expanding our reach and continuing to educate more individuals about the importance of early detection.
Why Partnership Matters
Know Your Lemons and Breast Friends are thrilled to continue their partnership in furthering our shared commitment to breast health education and awareness. By working together, we can reach more individuals with life-saving information, fostering a world where early detection and compassionate support make a difference.
"Collaboration is key to building a future where no one faces breast cancer alone."
Allison Hancock: A Leader with a Personal Connection
At the heart of Breast Friends is their Executive Director, Allison Hancock, a 20-year breast cancer survivor. Her personal experience with both diagnosis and survivorship drives her deep passion for supporting others who are going through similar experiences.
Allison first joined Breast Friends as a volunteer in 2013 and became the Executive Director in 2018. Since then, she has worked tirelessly to expand their programs, strengthen community outreach, and ensure that every individual impacted by breast cancer feels supported and empowered. Her vision and leadership continue to inspire their work and drive them toward a future where no one has to navigate a breast cancer diagnosis alone.
Looking Ahead
Breast Friends has said,
“Through our continued partnership with Know Your Lemons, we hope to inspire more individuals to take control of their breast health, raise awareness about the signs and symptoms of breast cancer, and provide a compassionate network of support for those facing a breast cancer diagnosis.
Together, we are building a future where education, early detection, and community support make a difference. We are honored to be part of this journey and excited to continue making an impact with Know Your Lemons.”
