Single Mothers and Poverty
We are the only nonprofit in the country dedicated to underserved single mothers with Metastatic Breast Cancer, and the only one to offer monthly recurring financial support to these families.
Not only is breast cancer more biologically aggressive in African American women, the disparity in breast cancer mortality also reflects social barriers that disproportionately affect Black Women via poverty, cultural and social injustice barriers across all disease phases: prevention, detection/incidence, treatment, post treatment/quality of life, survival/recurrence/mortality. NIH
Nationally: 70.5% of all African American working mothers are single moms, making them the primary, if not sole, economic providers for their families.

My Story
“I knew my story was not typical of most patients. The thin drape that separated me from other women in the infusion room every week did little to mute the voices of those questioning whether they could continue treatment because they were on their own and had bills to pay.”
Roberta Lombardi, Founder and President
