My Nonprofit Reviews

The 15-40 Connection changes people's lives every day in promoting self-advocacy and self-awareness in the early detection and treatment of cancer. Their message is consistent, their staff is compassionate and dedicated and the stories that they encourage cancer survivors to share are poignant, powerful and real.
The conversations they seek to promote reach out to people of all age groups. The 3 Steps to Early Cancer Detection are rules I live by each day and continue to instill in my two teenage children. And beyond advocating for our own health, my children and I have had the privilege of working under the guidance of Founder and Chief Volunteer Jim Coghlin, Sr., Executive Director Tricia Laursen and Director of the Annual Gala Susan Cyr, at several Annual Gala Fundraisers. It is at these events that the message takes on a different meaning, as hundreds of 15-40 Connection staff, volunteers and guests come together in highlighting the importance of their mission in saving lives. The events have been informative, energetic and inspiring to my children and me and have provided us with an opportunity to become fully engaged in promoting such a worthy message and cause. It all begins with the individual and the realization that each individual much first believe in the power of their voice and their intuition.
