“I remember how crucial it was for me to be around positive people when hope was so low. Now, as a volunteer, I have a chance to offer a positive energy, attitude, and knowledge about how to empower yourself with makeup and hair; for a woman facing cancer it is so helpful and truly mind-strengthening.”

Recently completed treatment?

If you’ve completed cancer treatment and are interested in volunteering with us, we kindly ask that you wait until at least one year has passed since your treatment ended. We’ve found that spending time with others who are currently going through their cancer journey can sometimes feel emotionally intense for those who are still in the early stages of recovery. Taking time to heal and regain strength is so important, and we’d love to welcome you when you’re ready.
