My Sister My Friend BCS has a history in the local community.

Events

We host several events throughout the year focused on breast health education and community outreach. These events are designed to promote screening, provide navigational screening assistance, and highlight the importance of early detection.

We also partner with a variety of healthcare and community organizations that share our vision, mission and goals. Together, we work to address the needs of our communities by increasing access to essential resources and support services.

We invite you to get involved and make a meaningful difference in your community and in the lives of others. If volunteering your time isn’t possible, you can still support our efforts by making a one-time or recurring financial contribution.

Our Vision

"A future where African American women do not bear the unequal burden of breast cancer caused by systemic inequities — but are supported, seen, and served through a culturally responsive lens, with equitable access and care."
