"At 23, most people my age have other priorities ... the Breasties has been the community I've clicked best with; and the only one I've felt like I truly belong in. The fact that all LGBT+ members, not just cis women, are openly welcomed has felt like such a huge relief."

"Camp prepared me to advocate for other Latinx survivors and people of color going through a gynecological cancer diagnosis."
- Survivor, 25
"I was able to connect with others, especially those stage 4 breasties. There’s no one who gets it better than the others who are on the same journey as you."

- Survivor, 44
"The opportunity to come to Camp Breastie changed my life. Before this camp I literally had no real life friends who had been through this under the age of 40. It changed lives and gave an unrepresented group a place to just be."
- Survivor, 30
