about us

Sisters Breast Cancer Survivors Network

is a grassroots, multicultural organization that was formed in early 1994 by a group of nine African American women – all breast cancer survivors – who, together, recognized to lift the veil of silence in our communities regarding this disease.

The Sister’s organization specifically targets African American women in Los Angeles, Compton and Inglewood areas, who are socio – economically disadvantaged, single and head of the household. The ages of the targeted women range from 40 to 80 years and the majority of them are either uninsured or underinsured. Based on a national survey, these are the women least likely to have regular scheduled mammograms.

In addition to the targeted women, Sisters welcomes all women who are in need of support and friendship.

Sisters Breast Cancer Survivors Network is a non-profit organization with a 501 (c) (3) status. Tax Deuctible contributions can be sent to sisters at the address below.
