A few notes to thank you for your support...

"This is the first time in my professional life that I haven't had insurance. I could not have gotten help without your foundation's assistance. Because I do work, I'm not eligible for help, welfare, or other assistance.  Thank you so much." Donna P.

"I was in a car accident last year and because I could not immediately return to work I lost my job and also my health benefits. It has been a hard year and I am truly amazed that someone reached out to help me.  So, all I can do is tell you how much it means to me that the American Breast Cancer Foundation responded as it did." -  Candace B.

"Since making my pledge, I have been diagnosed with breast cancer. I hope this donation will help other women to get examined before it is too late."  - Rosalie M.

"I would like to thank this program for the help I have received. I am raising two kids on my own. I lost my husband to Michael Landon Cancer six years ago so I know how important early detection is." - Stacie C.

"In the back of my mind I knew what I had to do, but I was very much afraid and besides my insurance on my job wouldn't cover it.  I called the health department, well the lady on the other end informed me that I was not eligible for any of their programs because I wasn't old enough. How old do you have to be?   This letter is long but with genuine thanks to everyone who was involved in my mission to live. There where many times when I wanted to give up hope but because of my faith and the support from the people at the American Breast Cancer Foundation - I am here alive and well." -  Janice J.

 "I was very much relieved to hear that my biopsy was benign but overwhelmed by the cost of the procedure. I truly appreciate your help in taking care of my expenses and for giving me some peace of mind." - Glenn E.

"When I received a phone call for a donation little did I know it would change my life. I never intended on going for a mammogram because of finances and no insurance but because of your foundation I got a mammogram and found out I had to have a biopsy - you truly saved my life and for this I am grateful and my family is too.  I praise your foundation for the help you are giving to people like me without the means of getting this done." -  Deborah C

 "Thanks so much for providing the mammogram. I got a good report and it makes me feel at peace. I appreciate all you do and the services you provide for women." - Joy

"A special thank you to the folks on the phone lines, I talked with a woman who encouraged me to get a mammogram-I got my first one this year at age 43. Thanks for the 'push' I needed." - (Unsigned)

"It is so comforting to know that there is an organization that really cares for, and about people. Sometimes it gets really difficult to get by on a fixed income. Your paying for my (Lymphedema) sleeve gave me a much needed boost." -  Carrie P.
