The NBCF Drive to Deliver HOPE
by Jimmy Gallegos, Region PCA Charity Chair
Right now, close to 4,000 women facing a long road through breast cancer treatment and recovery are waiting to receive comfort and compassion through a HOPE Kit.

A special project of National Breast Cancer Foundation, HOPE Kits are filled with thoughtful items that provide encouragement and comfort to patients undergoing breast cancer treatment—everything from fuzzy socks to tea, unscented lotion to lip balm, an inspirational bracelet to educational resources.
When women receive a HOPE Kit, here is how they react:
“The HOPE Kit could not have been more perfect! I felt as if each item had been selected especially for me. Everything was useful and appreciated.” – Regina
“In a time when smiles aren’t that easy to find, this HOPE Kit brought them to my face for days! It was perfect. Again, you made my day, my week, my month.” – Grace
“The HOPE Kit was very much appreciated! It brought me to tears just knowing someone else is thinking of me during this hard time.” – Mary Ellen
Because of the kits’ instant popularity, NBCF created a HOPE Kit waitlist that continues to grow.
During Breast Cancer Awareness Month, you can support the HOPE Kit program and women in need:
- Make a donation of any size. This month only, you can choose the specific program your donation supports. - Purchase a product from NBCF’s Amazon
WishList - Buy a BOGO HOPE Kit, doubling your impact
In October and throughout the year, National Breast Cancer Foundation provides help and hope at the exact moment women need it most—whether that’s before, during, or after a potential breast cancer diagnosis.
Hope is always within reach. Your donation can bring a smile to more faces and hope to more hearts during Breast Cancer Awareness Month. For more information on our programs and services, please visit nbcf.org.
