At the Living to Serve Foundation, we believe in the power of community, education, and women's health advocacy to transform the health journey of minority women. Our mission is to increase awareness of women's health issues, provide access to essential resources, and empower women to be proactive advocates for their health.
Black women have a 40% higher breast cancer mortality rate compared to white women, even though their incidence rates are slightly lower. This disparity is often attributed to differences in tumor biology, delayed diagnoses, and inequities in access to healthcare. Black women are also more likely to be diagnosed with aggressive forms of breast cancer, such as Triple Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC), which has higher recurrence rates within the first five years after treatment (Cancer Info & Resources Susan G. Komen®).
Navigating the challenges of health, especially breast cancer, can feel isolating, but it doesn’t have to be. We're here to ensure that no woman walks this path alone. Through our women's health advocacy programs and resources, we offer support, education, and the tools needed to advocate for your health and well-being.
Learn more about our women's health advocacy programs and how we support the community. From education to advocacy, we strive to make a positive difference in people's lives.
Throughout the year, Living to Serve hosts educational outreach throughout our local community. From health fairs to fundraisers, LTSF always has something fun planned.
Every contribution goes directly to support the women in our community. Learn more about how you can support the Living to Serve Foundation's mission in our community.
