MISSION & VALUES
OUR MISSION
The Living Beauty Cancer Foundation aims to educate, uplift and empower women with cancer by providing them with opportunities to explore wellness and healing modalities while also developing a sense of community with other women along the same path.
OUR VALUES
The Living Beauty Cancer Foundation believes that empathy, compassion, and sensitivity to the human condition are what first, above all else, allow us to truly and selflessly help others. We also believe that our integrity and determination to empower our participants in their healing journeys guide us in our service to them. In all of our endeavors at Living Beauty Cancer Foundation, we will uphold these core values.
Living Beauty Cancer Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, functioning as an activity and service-oriented organization dedicated to uplifting the lives of women living with cancer and cancer survivors. By offering innovative solutions to the challenges that women on their cancer journeys face daily, Living Beauty is able to realize its mission.
OUR PURPOSE
It is estimated that in 2024, more than 972,060 women in the United States will be diagnosed with cancer. Hospitals are beginning to acknowledge the importance of treating the whole person and are incorporating integrative wellness centers that offer complementary therapies. Recognizing this need since 2005, we are driven by the understanding that the challenges women have to overcome on their cancer journeys are complex and multifaceted. Living with cancer and the harsh treatments that often accompany the disease are known to lead to isolation, depression, high stress, anxiety, decreased physical ability and altered physical appearance. With this in mind, programs are specifically designed to facilitate the healing of an individual as a whole: mind, body and spirit. Living Beauty cares about each individual woman, and applies our wrap-around approach to provide women with education, knowledge and skills to combine their traditional medical treatment with more alternative treatment options that address all aspects of a patient’s life. We aim to offer support for our “Living Beauties” that gives them the tools and empowers them to aid in their continued healing no matter where they are on their cancer journey or what challenges they may be facing at any given time related to their cancer experience.
