ASLF’s philosophy is based on two phrases her mother used to live by: “No matter what your situation, you have to see the silver lining,” and “We are all family, and we have to help each other through the tough times.” ASLF provides no-cost screening mammograms, follow-up diagnostic testing, and other breast cancer resources to uninsured and underinsured patients. ASLF’s Buy A Mom A Mammogram” program funds screening mammograms at area hospitals to qualifying women in a timely, dignified and respectful fashion. Since the program’s inception in 2006, more than 2,000 women have received information about, and access to no cost screening mammograms. With 47,000,000 Americans currently living without health insurance, the Buy A Mom A Mammogram” provides a silver lining to those in need.
Since its launch in 2002, ASLF has provided more than 450,000 people with information about cancer resources, treatment options and support services. Through the organization’s programs, services and personal support, the foundation strives to provide opportunities for medically underserved people affected by cancer.
