Why Support?
Resilience Through Challenging Times: Many women carry the weight of invisible struggles. This event honors that resilience and reminds every attendee that strength doesn’t come from avoiding adversity; it comes from moving through it. Our panel of experts will share personal stories and offer practical tools for building emotional, physical, and mental resilience.
Empowerment Through Health: Far too often, women put their own well-being last. Whether due to family obligations, career pressures, or systemic barriers, prioritizing health can feel impossible. This luncheon will provide guidance on how to take back control, through preventative care, mental health practices, and understanding key cancer risk factors that uniquely affect women.
​​​
Fuel Promising Cancer Research: Your support will help sustain women-led research, advance the careers of female scientists, and strengthen the pipeline of women in leadership roles within cancer research, an area where female representation remains low.
​​​
Growth and Transformation of Self: This event is about more than education; it’s about transformation. From setting boundaries to redefining success, the conversation will go beyond surface-level inspiration and offer tangible steps for personal evolution. When women are empowered to care for themselves, they become unstoppable forces of collective change.
