About Cause: Breast Health Fund at McLaren Northern Michigan Foundation
"From the first mammogram through remission, the Breast Health Fund supports, comforts, and cares for patients. Because early detection is so important for successful treatment, the fund offsets the cost for important diagnostic tests, including mammograms and biopsies, for patients in northern Michigan who are unable to afford them. During breast cancer treatment, patients receive assistance for transportation costs, lodging expenses, short term prescription aid, comfort items, and more. The fund also supports the needs of the Breast Health Department including equipment purchases." -mclaren.org
