Thanks to your support, in May the "Soul Sisters" program went around the country for the 6th consecutive year to support women diagnosed with breast cancer and their loved ones.
In 2022 we plan to visit 9 cities in the country to provide psychological, emotional, practical and informational support to newly diagnosed women with breast cancer who are currently undergoing treatment, as well as to women with metastatic disease.
In May we visited the towns of Pazardzhik and Hissarya. Our survivors and psychologists meet with 30 women with the diagnose. During the meeting we talked about all aspects of life with breast cancer, showed videos with important information for patients from leading experts in the field of oncology, gynecology and kinesitherapy. The ladies received practical advices, asked their questions to the survivors and psychologists of One in 8, as well as received free of charge informational brochures, turbans, wigs, specialized post-mastectomy bras and post-mastectomy primary prothesis.
Next week The Pink camper leaves for Yambol and Stara Zagora. Our team is already excited about the upcoming meeting with the ladies from these cities.
I would like to thank all of you again for your continued support for the „Soul sisters” program.
Your help is extremely important for the One in 8 Foundation, thanks to which we are able to reach more women throughout Bulgaria.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
