Inspiring Read for Breast Cancer Awareness Month by Our Own Liz Loreti!

Go Pink: October 26 Meeting

In honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, I want to encourage everyone to read a powerful guest column recently published in SaportaReport, written by our very own Rotarian, Liz Loreti. .

As the Executive Director of Iris Breast Cancer Rehabilitation, Liz shines a light on an often-overlooked aspect of survivorship: the critical need for post-treatment rehabilitation, physical recovery, and equitable access to care for all survivors.

Her article is a moving reminder of the work still needed to support individuals and families navigating life after cancer, embodying our Rotary spirit of Service Above Self.

Please take a few minutes to read and share Liz's insightful piece! 

Also, Iris has an anonymous $50,000 matching gift for all donations received this month. If anyone feels compelled to give, it makes a huge difference for us, especially supporting local survivors. Donation page: https://irisbcr.org

Save the date! Let's go pink for Breast Cancer Awareness Month on October 26!
