As a nonprofit professional, daughter of a breast cancer survivor and myself a papillary thyroid cancer survivor from the age of 35, I experience the power of a supportive network of family, friends, and health professionals every day.

Those resources aren’t always easy to come by, and in the days and weeks that follow diagnosis, young patients don’t always know where to begin to look for support. That is why organizations like SurviveDat are so important to young breast cancer survivors, and the people who care for them.

When you give to SurviveDAT, 100% of your gifts made through the LSU Health Foundation that are designated to SurviveDat, go to support SurviveDat. Simply indicate where you would like your gift to go and we will take care of the rest. And if your place of employment has a matching gift program, let us know, and we will make certain that we follow through on securing that match.

This season, give the gift of community to young survivors in need by making a philanthropic contribution to SurviveDat.

Thank you and Happy Holidays!
