Maria Giacalone, a breast cancer survivor, collects tips from her Italian food truck for breast cancer prevention. 💖

After being diagnosed with breast cancer, Maria became a client of ours, and we supported her all the way through treatment. Now, she gives back by collecting tips at her food truck, Maria’s Italian Kitchen On The Go, and donating them to PfBCC to save lives just like hers. Thank you, Maria! 🩷

Say hello to one of our newest board members, Lisa Stanick! 👋🏼

Lisa started her journey with Partners as a volunteer after getting inspired to help women get access to breast cancer resources as a hospital employee in the area.

"Partners for Breast Cancer Care is such a wonderful organization that they help [with] everything from mammography, all the way through chemo and surgery if it's needed," Lisa said. "I am just so honored and so happy to help out Partners in any way that I can."💗
