Helping Women 'Get' Prostate Cancer

Helping Women ‘GET' Prostate Cancer

When volunteer Susan Whitacre was asked why she volunteers for a man’s disease, she said, “. You would be mistaken to believe that cancer of the prostate affects only men. It also profoundly affects the lives of the women who love them; their mothers, daughters, wives, sisters and friends.

That’s why I’m driven to make sure that women ‘get’ prostate cancer….not contract it, but understand prostate cancer. Offering our time and our talents and our resources to the philanthropic efforts for research for the cure, enriches everyone of our individual lives, that of our families and our community as well. It reaches across generations …carrying the promise of a future which is cancer free for our children, it bridges the gender divide…offering information, resources and options to men and hope and support to the women who love them.”
