About Young Survival Coalition |
The Young Survival Coalition (YSC) is the only international, non-profit network of breast cancer survivors and supporters dedicated to the concerns and issues that are unique to young women and breast cancer. Through action, advocacy and awareness, the YSC seeks to educate the medical, research, breast cancer and legislative communities and to persuade them to address breast cancer in women 40 and under. The YSC also serves as a point of contact for young women living with breast cancer.
Unlike their post-menopausal counterparts, young women diagnosed with breast cancer face higher mortality rates, fertility issues and the possibility and ramifications of early menopause. The YSC seeks to change the face of breast cancer by: advocating to increase the number of studies about young women and breast cancer; educating young women about the importance of breast self-examination and early detection; and being a point of contact for other young women with breast cancer.
The YSC seeks to improve the quality and quantity of life of all young women affected by breast cancer. |

About Lotsa Helping Hands
We created Lotsa Helping Hands after witnessing four years of awe-inspiring community support and response to a family member's serious medical crisis. Seeing how earnestly friends wanted to help, and juggling the difficulty of organizing their assistance, we designed Lotsa Helping Hands with the understanding of how to bring together a variety of social circles and what a resulting community like this would need. We have paid special attention to making this web service intuitive enough to begin using immediately.
How Lotsa Helping Hands gives back to society
Because Lotsa Helping Hands was inspired by the outpouring of support during our own caregiving experiences from a long-term medical struggle, we have dedicated part of our profits to supporting various health research, education, and caregiving programs.
