This is a great resource if you’re looking for free services like mammograms, support groups, and retreats — since no one should have to battle breast cancer alone.
National Breast and Cervical Cancer Early Detection Program
If you’re experiencing financial hardship, this organization can help! People with low incomes who don’t have access to adequate insurance are given access to a range of services, such as breast and cervical cancer screenings as well as cancer treatment.
The American Cancer Society
Not everyone battling breast cancer has a reliable way to get to their treatment. Which is why the American Cancer Society provides free lodging and rides to treatment, along with 24/7 helplines and support navigating life while battling breast cancer. They also host fundraising events and offer a totally free app where people can find information and connect with breast cancer survivors.
“The Jennifer Hudson Show” airs weekdays. Here’s when to watch in your area.
