Welcome to Breast Connect! We are dedicated to providing those impacted by breast cancer with a wealth of resources. Our goal is to answer questions, provide information, and help patients create the best course of action as they embark on their breast cancer journey.Ā
ABOUT US
In 2014, a group of breast cancer patients and survivors in Knoxville, TN met one evening for the purpose of companionship and support. That group, nicknamed the āHappy Hour for a Cure,ā grew as dozens of women found comfort and support in sharing their stories with those who āhad been down that road.ā That small group blossomed into the Breast Connect of today, providing women with confidence and support during the most critical decision-making process and beyond.
Our organization is a one-stop shop for educational materials, financial assistance information, survivor questions to ask your docs, treatment and surgery tips, and day-to-day assistance suggestions for those with limited family support or availability. Additionally, we partner with Courage to Conquer Cancer to provide post-surgical supplies for women undergoing mastectomies and Random Acts of Flowers to send flowers to those who are undergoing surgery for breast cancer.
The focus of Breast Connect remains Survivor helping Survivor. If you are visiting us as a newly diagnosed breast cancer patient, we welcome you to our sisterhood and invite you to join our private Facebook Group. You are not alone.
