You, the Orange County community, are the heart and soul of this movement and we look forward to rallying with you in the persistent and unwavering fight against breast cancer. With your support, we will continue to bring invaluable breast health services and education programs to those in our community who need them most.
If you have any questions, please give us a call at 714.957.9157 or email info@komenoc.org.
Thank you again for your support and understanding during this time.
Take care of yourselves and one another. We will get through this together!
The damage from the Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) extends to those battling breast cancer. We have already seen patients lose income and fear for their health and survival, with many unable to access the treatment and medical care they critically need. Our work has never been more important, but the impact of COVID-19 makes it critically urgent.
The Komen California Response Fund is a Susan G. Komen® statewide affiliate movement to raise funds to support breast cancer patients and survivors who have been impacted by the economic downturn caused by COVID-19. Funds will enable Komen affiliates across California to support their local Breast Health Communities by helping those they serve to overcome existing and new, crisis-related barriers to access support services and care. Click here to donate to the Komen California Response Fund and help us help breast cancer patients today. |

“In this time of social distancing, doctors’ appointments may be delayed, and people may be isolated from their usual sources of support,” says Susan Brown, Komen HQ’s senior director of education and patient support. “We know this can create uncertainty and raises many questions. We are here for you, we care about you, we will support you. Komen provides resources online and through our toll-free helpline to help patients, their families and loved ones going through breast cancer so that no one feels alone in a time of need.”
If you or a loved one needs information about breast health or breast cancer, call our breast care helpline to speak with a trained specialist or oncology social worker at 1-877 GO KOMEN (1-877-465-6636) or email at helpline@komen.org. |
