Upcoming Open Door meetings
Please join us at one of our upcoming Open Door meetings. At each meeting, a topical breast cancer issue is discussed by a new speaker. Upcoming meeting subjects include, "Surgical techniques for breast cancer," "Waiting for the other shoe to drop ... fears of recurrence" and "Is breast cancer inherited?”

Thank you for an empowering Mother's Day!
Congratulations to all the participants of the 2007 Sacramento Walk to Empower! This year we raised nearly $200,000 to ensure that no one faces breast cancer alone. Across the nation, Y-ME's Mother's Day events raised a total of $7 million! A very special thanks to all our participants, sponsors and volunteers who helped make it happen!
