After being diagnosed with Metastatic BC in November 2022 my daughter found this amazing organization and they have truly been a god send! They’ve went above and beyond with help specifically Rachel! I highly recommend NothingPink!

They have been there for me since day 1. That was 3 yrs.ago. I still get invited for all sorts of things that they have. When I came home from the hospital, I was sent a care package with some wonderful items. Love these people and what they do. Pamela Deal

Finding out I was Brca 2+ was scary and lonely until I found Nothing Pink. This amazing group of ladies walked me though understanding what this mutation meant and helping me find doctors. This support group was there for me leading up to surgery, though my prophylactic mastectomy (+3 more surgeries) with not only prayers and friendships but care packages and financial support as well. I can’t thank these women and this organization enough!

In November 2022 I was made aware I was BRCA2 positive which increased my chance of breast cancer tremendously. NothingPink has been a great resource for me as I navigated through this extremely stressful process and decisions. They sent a care package for my surgery I had scheduled with necessities and even a soup package post op! They have a great support group and virtual meetings! I couldn’t imagine going through all this without their support!

Nothing Pink and the women behind it are an incredible resource to those impacted by the BRCA (and other) genetic mutations. They were there for me and my family (my mom and two sisters who are all BRCA 1+) while we went through our mastectomies. The support groups, care packages, financial support, group get togethers are helpful beyond measure to those going through difficult times and making difficult decisions. I am forever thankful to have such a strong and supportive group of women who help make something so heavy feel a little lighter ❤️

This group has made my entire mastectomy process so much easier. They have such a supportive group of women who have experienced the same thing and openly share their experiences, which is such a game changer when trying to navigate the process and learn what questions to ask. They offer connection events and live video calls to get to know these other local ladies too- building a sense of community for those with BRCA. Nothing Pink also delivers helpful post-op items and food to ease your recovery. I’m so grateful we have this group locally!

There are not enough words to describe the ways this organization has helped me.
These amazing women have walked this walk and know exactly what is needed to help others on this same path. Emotional support, financial assistance, pre and post care packages, meals for you and your family after surgeries are just a few ways Nothing Pink provides assistance to the local community. Once you are a part, you are a part of a family and feel every ounce of love they have. It definitely made getting diagnosed with breast cancer easier to get through knowing I had others walking alongside of me.

Nothing Pink helped me through the worst year of my life. I was diagnosed with triple negative breast cancer in 2022 and I was lost. This organization helped and supported me in so many ways during my journey and it is now like I have a 2nd family who understands me and what I have gone through and will always go through. I can’t imagine what my journey would have been like without them and all of the support me and my family received.

I found Nothing Pink right after my positive Brca1 diagnosis last year at 35 years old. I was so lost and scared. They offered emotional support through my journey of mammograms, biopsies, ultrasounds and an MRI. I decided to have a preventative double mastectomy with reconstruction and I had my remaining ovary removed. Through my surgeries they sent care packages, meals and financial support. They offer many ways to connect and I've been on the monthly zoom calls to speak and ask questions to other local women who also have the Brca gene. I am eternally thankful for their support. I honestly don't know how I would have made it through the last 15 months without them.

Since 2017, NothingPink has been along side me through genetic testing, screening and preventative surgeries. The emotional support and understanding they offered me meant so much because I knew they could relate to my experience facing a BRCA diagnosis. The care package and meals that were sent were such a big help through my recovery. The Support Community has such a wide range of different stories, I am always learning new things and expanding my mindset.
Now I am a board member, Support Director and volunteer with NothingPink to help other women that are facing genetic testing, cancer diagnosis and prevention options. Being able to give back to others is such a blessing.

I LOVE Nothing Pink!!! In March 2020 I was diagnosed with ovarian cancer and the BRCA2 gene. I had tremendous moral support from family & friends but I was home alone because no one knew at that time how the virus was contracted, and the only way I got through it in one piece was with the help of Nothing PINK. They helped me get organized for chemo, sent food, provided moral & financial support and the biweekly zoom support groups were a lifesaver!

Now 2 1/2 years later and I am still relying on Nothing Pink! In October 2022 I had a successful preventative double mastectomy with reconstruction. Their surgery care kit gave me all the tools and things I needed to be comfortable once I got home from surgery. I am still doing the biweekly support meetings and still cherish all the help that they continue to give me!

Words will never express the difference that Nothing PINK makes in my life. It’s not easy living with a cancer gene, but I would not trade it for anything because the deep friendships, positive energy and love of all my Nothing Pink sisters out weighs any negative! Nothing PINK is a blessing to me and countless others!
