The Tuman Breast Cancer Foundation is a pillar for women who are going through breast cancer treatment. It’s these fighters we are here to love and lift up. We carry the weight of some of the day to day tasks and necessities of life so that she can focus on healing and gaining strength. There is power in community and there is strength in support.
WHAT DO YOUR DONATIONS GO TOWARDS?
When a woman is fighting breast cancer, there are a lot of needs outside of treatment that they require. Things like:
Financial assistance to help meet insurance deductibles
Meals for the family when she is in bed sick from treatment
Transportation for her children when she’s not able to take them to school or practices
House Cleaning while she’s under the weather
Yard maintenance so that the family can focus on the fight instead of chores
Laundry assistance when she lacks the energy to make it out of her bedroom
Massage to work out the soreness from the muscle and bone pain
IV Therapy to help with recovery and wellness And MORE!!!!
With your donations, we are able to provide women with assistance in these areas and more based on their specific needs. We have partnered with local businesses to help provide these services. Every donation will impact these families in ways you will never know!
Mission
Loving on women where they are, the Tuman Breast Cancer Foundation (501c3) exists to financially and emotionally assist women in our local communities throughout their breast cancer journey.
