Sandra'Hope Foundation has been a very good organization to the community. Not only have they come together to help breast cancers survivors and their families in their difficult time but they have also brought so many people together for an amazing cause. They continue to do things throughout the year which my favorite event has been their Volleyball tournament. This event is very big and so many sponsors and people come together to make it a success year after year. I am pleased to have been able to be involved in these events so far and look forward to continuing to volunteer my support.

I have donated to this organization in the past. And, then 2 years ago, my oldest daughter was diagnosed with breast cancer. Sandra’s Hope Foundation reached out to us, as soon as I let them know. They offered resources and support throughout. It helped make this journey less isolated. I have referred their services to others ai know and will continue to support them.

SHF is A Beacon of Hope and Support in the Face of Breast Cancer

Sandra’s Hope Foundation demonstrates unparalleled compassion and dedication. This organization not only provides valuable information about breast cancer but also offers emotional support, creating a supportive network that proves crucial during a challenging journey.

One aspect that stands out is their commitment to raising awareness about breast cancer. Through various initiatives, SHF actively works to educate and bring awareness to the community. This dedication not only empowers those directly affected but also contributes to a broader culture of awareness and empathy.

Moreover, SHF goes beyond emotional support by providing tangible assistance. Whether through financial aid, connecting patients with resources, or organizing events that foster a sense of community, they address the multifaceted needs of individuals navigating the complexities of breast cancer.

If you or someone you know is dealing with breast cancer, I wholeheartedly recommend reaching out to SHF. In times of darkness, they are a shining light of support, guidance, and hope.

Sandra's Hope Foundation is a wonderful example that there are still good people out there helping others. I've seen this organization provide support to numerous women in our community that are fighting breast cancer. Both financially and emotionally. SHF is a reminder to these women, that they are not fighting alone.

I am truly honored to be associated with the Sandra's Hope Foundation. This Foundation is 100% volunteer basis and the money raised here in San Antonio stays in San Antonio.
I have been blessed to have met many of the brave souls. Brave souls navigating on an inauspicious journey. A journey that can make one feel alone.
That is why this organization's focus is on the brave women [and men] that are fighting courageously and SHF is there to remind them that you don't have to fight this alone.

This is one of the most amazing non profit organizations here in SA. I have been volunteering since 2015. It’s been a pleasure helping. Looking forward to the Pink Christmas each year! Pink Christmas provides a handmade blanket, care basket and a HEB gift card to those that are going through treatment during the holidays. SHF also helps financially for treatments. Helping others will always make me feel better especially volunteering to this organization.

This organization is top notch. My experience in being able to participate in Hope on the Runway was an Absolute great experience. Bringing awareness and supporting the one fighting is what they do. Fighting breast cancer isn’t easy but these ladies helped you forget about all that if even for a few hours it was well worth it for me. Their dedication and big hearts makes it a unique organization. I will always spread the word around about them.
Thank you ladies for unforgettable experiences.

I have seen first hand how this foundation has impacted many individuals and their families. Scholarship awards, holiday dinners, chemo care packages are just a few things that the foundation physically provides.

So many amazing things to say about Sandra’s Hope Foundation. I have been a part of this organization since the beginning and it has been such a humbling experience. This non profit truly cares for those in need. They support breast cancer families with open arms to offer love, encouragement & hope as well as assist with financial assistance. SHF serves the local community in so many wonderful ways: scholarship awards, back to school giveaways, Pink Christmas-holiday dinners & handmade chemo care baskets. It is a blessing to be able to make an impact in our community, help families and to be able to support other sister charities. It’s an honor to be surrounded by so many passionate, selfless and kind volunteers. We will continue to carry on our values & mission to help everyone that has been touched by breast cancer. I hope the community understands how important it is to honor and support this fabulous organization.

Last year I heard those words no woman ever wants to hear, you have breast cancer. To say it was over whelming is an understatement. When I received a home delivery of a bag full of helpful goodies it helped to remind me that there are so many other women fighting this disease and that we have wonderful organizations like this to support us. Thank you so much for your support, may you and this organization continue to be blessed.

Medical bills are piling up, but fortunately, Sandra's Hope Foundation stepped in and has helped to relieve my financial burden! I am hopeful to be able to give back in the future to such an incredible foundation of support! Feeling very blessed at this time.

This organization of incredible women
Has provided emotional, physical and financial assistance to breast cancer survivors like myself. They have been there for me since my metastatic journey began, which is around the time they started this foundation. They do Hope on the Runway where the breast Cancer survivors are the models. They get us dressed and glammed up to be so beautiful for the night. They also have fundraisers to help raise money for them to help the survivors. They go above and beyond to provide us what we need at our time of need. They will always have a place in my heart!

SHF is a great non-profit that has helped many women in the community in more than one way. Events they host has created bonds between survivors and allowed those going thru hardship to connect and provide support for one another. Not only have they helped survivors or fighters, but the families as well. They provide gift cards during back to school and turkey dinners for the family. If you know someone who's been affected, please tell them about Sandra's Hope Foundation.

I am a breast cancer survivor & have been associated with Sandras Hope Foundation (SHF) since 2015 when I participated, as a model, in their annual Hope on The Runway Fashion Show fundraiser. I expected the fashion show to be a once in a lifetime experience; however, did not realize it would be the start of something wonderful. It was the beginning of a bond with an incredible group of women and men from SHF as well as fellow models (pink sisters) which has grown stronger over the years. SHF has given financial aid to fellow pink sisters when they found themselves in dire straits . Sometimes tests or treatment is necessary & there is no time to "wait" for funds or better circumstances. SFH focus is on assisting the community of women (& men) effected by breast cancer. One of their biggest outreach projects takes place during the holiday season when Foundation members & volunteers gather to create "Chemo Care Baskets' which are gifted, along with a complete Turkey dinner, to a breast cancer patient undergoing treatment. A dear friend of mine who had been diagnosed & widowed within weeks of each other was the recipient of such a care basket. I was grateful that SHF was there to provide this blessing to her in such a difficult time. Fundraisers such as Volleyball Tournaments and mixers are done in a professional and fun way. Everyone at SHF treats you as if you are family. They are sincere about "loving you through it".. the journey with breast cancer. They have been there for me, & fellow survivors, in the best & worst of times. We celebrate life in good times at the annual Hope on The Runway Fashion show. We celebrate as we hear a survivor is now in remission. We celebrate being part of a community who comes together & supports those in need during the holiday season. The ladies and gents of SHF join their community of survivors to pray and support those who receive news that they are going to battle cancer for the 2nd time..a recurrence. And there have been the worst of times, when far too many of our pink sisters have passed away. SHF was there for my dear friend , also a former model, when they treated both she and her mother to a special day of pampering . There were no lights or cameras, just friends (several survivors) and the ladies of SHF to bring love and light to the darkest of times. Our pink sister passed away a couple of weeks later. So we, the community of survivors supported by SHF and the ladies and gentlemen who have supported us have laughed, cried & grieved together. It's 2019 & unfortunately women (& men) are still being diagnosed with breast cancer. I am grateful that Sandra's Hope Foundation is active in our community & there to offer HOPE to those diagnosed. Support comes in so many ways.. whether it be financial, emotional, learning about better nutrition & wellness or just creating a support system for those like me who are still navigating their way through life as a breast cancer survivor/thrivor. I believe the compassionate & driven individuals of SHF are even more determined than ever to bring awareness to our community about breast cancer. I am humbled & honored to be associated with this Foundation & look forward to all the great things they WILL do in the future because "No One Fights Alone" !

I can’t say enough about SHF, formerly known as Fabooblicious. I have watched us grow from a small fundraiser to a exceptional non profit and it’s joyful to see that we have kept the same values and vision as we have had in the beginning. The selfless dedication and passion the president, board and team members have, demonstrates the love we have for this cause and proves our good standing as a reputable and credible not-for-profit foundation. It is important for our community to have us, as we are committed to assist and advise those who have been touched by breast cancer.
