Much of the Foundation's work would be impossible without our volunteers. Over 80 strong, they provide sensitive, caring outreach at breast cancer screening sites, distribute educational materials, interpre for patients who speak foreign languages, and reassure women waiting to be screened. They also provide the majority of the highly labor intensive work needed to support our special events, thus enabling the Foundation to direct the vast majority of the funds raised through these efforts to our programs.
