Breast Cancer Organizations

Sharsheret supports young Jewish women and families facing breast cancer at every stage—before, during, and after diagnosis. We help all women and families connect to our community taking into consideration their stage of life, genetic risk, diagnosis, or treatment, as well as their personal background. We also provide educational resources, offer individualized support to those facing ovarian cancer or at high risk of developing cancer, and create awareness programs for local communities and on college campuses. We understand that young Jewish women have unique concerns when it comes to breast and ovarian cancer, and we are the only organization dedicated to addressing their needs.
