We are pleased to announce our charity partner, Pink Warrior Advocates.
Since becoming an established 501c3 in August of 2015, we have awarded over $475,000 in grants to women undergoing treatment for a breast cancer diagnosis. In 2018 we initiated a split, which has allowed us to keep your generous donations local, funding the following counties: Comal, Guadalupe, Bexar, Travis, Hays, Bastrop, Caldwell, Medina, Wilson, Bandera, Kerrville, Kendall, Blanco, Gillespie, Llano, Burnett, Williamson, Lee, Gonzales. We are currently averaging $10,000 in financial assistance and it comes in many unique forms ranging from medical bills, grocery services, living expenses, and even assisting families with unexpected funeral costs. In addition, we have partnered up with various resources, allowing us to fund necessary items such as: care kits, knitted knockers, and mastectomy bras designed by Ana Ono. In 2018 we launched MetaWish: a unique program designed to grant wishes forthose diagnosed with Stage IV breast cancer. With the continued support of our local community, we will have the abilityto continue to fulfill all of these necessary needs. Our ongoing goal is to continue to increase our grants so that we maycontinue lifting the burdens that a cancer diagnosis leaves on our Warriors.
Pink Warrior Advocates is focused on providing direct support to those who have been diagnosed with breast cancer. We believe in creating a community of Advocates to guide our Warriors through their journeys. We act on what we have experienced in our own personal battles with breast cancer by providing resources, financial assistance, and emotionalsupport.
Our founder, Jen, who battled Stage IV incurable breast cancer, knew what it felt like to go through a breast cancer diagnosis feeling alone and confused, and Pink Warrior Advocates was created to fulfill the needs she felt were lacking in the community. From the moment a woman is diagnosed, her entire life can take a turn, and though she may not realize it at first, seeking support through those who have experienced and conquered their own battles with cancer is something we believe can help them throughout their journey. No one should ever have to fight this battle feeling alone. While it may be difficult to acknowledge the need for this type of support, Pink Warrior Advocates encourages our Warriors to reach out and provides them with a special community of Advocates to help guide them through. The life-long bonds that are created through our organization are so meaningful and so important for the well-being of our Warriors. We pride our organization on the philosophy that we fight together, as one, and as a community filled with loveand hope for one another.
We appreciate your continued support!
