Our Mission

Our mission is to improve the quality of life for single mums with breast cancer by supporting their basic needs of life during treatment and recovery so they can focus their energies on healing and being what mums really want to be: their nurturing and loving selves for their kids.

Our vision grows out of a genuine love and caring for single mums with breast cancer who feel they are on the edge. We are called to meet them at that edge and gently escort them back to life and their future.

All our work is based on the belief that single mothers affected by breast cancer should not have to endure the extra pressure of financial stress and isolation during this difficult time, because they experience unique emotional issues as a result of their circumstances. Every mother’s primary need and focus is to care for and protect her children. At a time when their own life and health is uncertain, we want them to be able to direct all their energy on their personal recovery, knowing that they and their children are cared for.

Specifically we provide support in these areas:

• financial support they need to help pay for essential living costs; such as home help, childcare, household bills, medical costs, wholesome, healthy, organic food, transportation costs and hotel stays for family members during hospital stays.
  Emotional support for single mothers and their children during their treatment and recovery through our community network of mentors and support groups

• Emotional support for single mothers and their children during their treatment and recovery through our community network of mentors and support groups

• Physical support through resources for exercise and nutrition
