HERS Breast Cancer Foundation’s mission is to support all individuals healing from breast cancer by providing post-surgical products and services regardless of financial status. HERS is the only nonprofit organization in the Bay Area that provides appropriate products (such as bras, prostheses, and wigs) for breast cancer survivors, including under-served patients.
Services are available at three locations: the flagship program store at Washington Hospital in Fremont, at Stanford Health Care ValleyCare in Pleasanton, and at Kaiser Permanente Hospital in San Leandro.
HERS Breast Cancer Foundation services are designed to help individuals overcome what can be devastating emotional and physical effects of surgery and treatment. The program stores provide private, understanding environments for breast cancer survivors to be properly fitted for bras and prostheses, compression garments to alleviate lymphedema, and wigs and other head covering. The service and the products HERS provide patients help to restore survivors' sense of HERS -- Hope, Empowerment, Renewal, and Support. HERS is truly “a soft place to fall” for survivors during one of the hardest times in their lives.
An active Fremont Chamber member for 19 years, the HERS Breast Cancer Foundation finds value in their ability to raise brand awareness and attract patients and stakeholders through the benefit of membership. Through participating in the Annual State of the City, as well as other mixers and events, HERS is able to connect with like-minded professionals in the community to continue to grow and develop the organization. HERS has also found their profile on the Chamber’s website to be beneficial in helping potential clients to find and learn about their services, and uses the Chamber’s newsletters and publications to promote their organization and learn about opportunities and news in the community.
