WHY THIS EVENT MATTERS
Young women diagnosed with breast cancer face unique and often overlooked challenges—long after treatment ends. Too often, they feel unsupported during survivorship.
The iRise Above Foundation exists to change that by providing integrative wellness programs, community connection, and healing-centered experiences designed for women in their 20s, 30s, and 40s—so they can reclaim their power and continue rising above the residual effects of cancer.
Funds raised through this event directly support iRise Above’s mission-driven programs, helping young women not only survive but truly live well.
