The After Cancer’s Journey to Making Strides in Triangle, NC


The After Cancer team

We are delighted to share our experience at the Making Strides event in Cary, NC, in October 2023. This event was a significant milestone for The After Cancer, marking our second event participation in a Making Strides event by The American Cancer Society.


Engaging with the Triangle Community of Cancer Survivors

The day was filled with enthusiasm, hope, and an overwhelming sense of community. We had the incredible opportunity to meet many wonderful women from the Triangle area, each with their own powerful stories of resilience and strength. These interactions were not only heartwarming but also underscored the immense need for comprehensive support for cancer survivors, reinforcing our mission. Engaging with the local community in the Triangle allowed us to better understand and address their unique needs.


Introducing The After Cancer Resources to the Triangle based Cancer Survivors

Our booth attracted numerous visitors eager to learn about our resources designed to help survivors manage treatment symptoms, adopt healthy behaviors, and reduce the risk of recurrence. The genuine interest and positive feedback we received were truly encouraging. Many of these amazing women decided to join our group sessions, where they can find a supportive community and access the personalized care they need. Our presence in the Triangle highlighted the importance of local engagement and support.


Building a Supportive Community for Breast Cancer Patients in North Carolina

Attending the Making Strides event in the Triangle, NC, in October 2023 was a profound experience for The After Cancer team. It allowed us to connect with survivors, share our vision, and lay the foundation for lasting relationships within the breast cancer community. We are grateful for the warm reception and look forward to continuing our journey, providing the support and resources survivors need to thrive. Our involvement in the Triangle area has strengthened our commitment to making a difference locally and beyond.
