The Camden County
Cancer Coalition is supporting and
participating in the "Sisters Will You Help Me" program.
Initiated in September 2001, facilitated by Dianne Hyman, a nurse
with Cooper Hospital CKKD Program, "Sister Will You Help Me" is a
minority breast cancer support program for women of color and faith.
The meetings are held the 2nd Thursday of each month at 3 Cooper
Plaza suite 400. It is a place for survivors to come and interact
together to share their experiences. It is uplifting and rewarding.
The ladies encourage and pray for one another. Adopting families for
(he holidays or strutting down the runway for the annual fashion
show, the ladies find meaning and
purpose within this group. Our mission is to empower through
knowledge, encourage through sisterhood, enlighten through faith and
to bond through love.
