Hope in Action for Every Breast Cancer Journey.
WE SUPPORT THE FIGHTERS OF BREAST CANCER, ONE FAMILY AT A TIME
Our Mission
I Will Survive, Inc. (IWS) is a 501(c)(3) veteran-led nonprofit organization that empowers military connected families at higher risk for or affected by breast cancer through financial assistance, prevention education, and wellness programs.
Financial Freedom for Fighters
We provide direct support services like paying housing costs to help invert the financial burden of breast cancer for survivors and their families, thanks to ARCHI’s partnership as a trusted housing ally in this work.
EmpowerHER Wellness Program
EmpowerHER Wellness Program is I Will Survive, Inc.’s holistic education and support initiative for women facing breast cancer. Through EmpowerHER Wellness Workshops, we provide practical tools for physical and emotional strength—covering breast cancer screening and referrals, nutrition, exercise, mental health, financial literacy, and self‑care—so women can better navigate treatment, recovery, and survivorship. Thanks to partners like the Center for Black Women’s Wellness, State Farm, The Fulton-DeKalb Hospital Authority, Operation Hope, Foresters Financial, Grady, F.O.R.C.E, Jscreen, iHeart Media, Emory, Morehouse School of Medicine and Northside.
Beyond the Diagnosis Mentoring Program
Beyond the Diagnosis Mentoring Program connects you with a peer who understands life during and after breast cancer, so you never have to navigate survivorship alone. Through our workforce partner Cancer and Careers, you can speak with professional coaches about how cancer may affect your current job or job search.
- Personal Guidance – One-on-one mentorship to navigate the breast cancer journey.
- Shared Experiences – Survivors offering understanding, empathy, and real-life insight.
- Community Support – Building lasting connections that inspire strength and hope. Thank you Jasper!
