Review for Cancer Schmancer Foundation, Malibu, CA, USA
As a future physician and breast cancer survivor, I'd like to give my wholehearted endorsement for Cancer Schmancer. This foundation's work focuses on the most important aspect of cancer treatment: early detection. In almost all women's cancers, a Stage 1 diagnosis ensures a healthy prognosis of survival. In other words, a bright future. The chance to spend a lifetime with a loved one or to see children grow up. I was one of those fortunate women who got diagnosed early, and because I know how incredibly wonderful it is to make a full recovery, I support and believe in Fran Drescher and her team. They want to make sure that every woman gets this opportunity by raising awareness and lobbying for increased funding and improvements in women's health, both on state and federal level. For this reason, I urge everyone to support their cause in any possible way.
More Feedback
I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
positive media reviews, successful community events, and national recognition for their contribution.
If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
still hand over the reigns to Ms. Drescher, because she's clearly already doing a great job without my help!
What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...
the way they use social media to build meaningful relationships with supporters, donors, and volunteers.
The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...
energetic, motivating, knowledgeable, and very sincere.
If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...
do so much more to reach more women and provide better resources.
Ways to make it better...
I had never been diagnosed with cancer. But, obviously, life handed me that lemon, and for others like me, Cancer Schmancer is an indispensable resource on the road to recovery.
In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are...
lack of funding and support structures to fully address all the important issues.
One thing I'd also say is that...
it only takes one person to stand up and say, "I want to make a difference." That person is Fran Drescher and I would like to express my utmost respect for her willingness and hard work.
