Did you know that every three minutes a woman in the United States is
diagnosed with breast cancer?
If you think that’s scary, just imagine how it feels to be an uninsured female and unable
to afford an annual mammogram.

Armed with the knowledge that the key to surviving breast cancer is early diagnosis, and that
mammograms are the best tools for early detection, members of the Whitley County Giving
Circle for Women’s Health have set out to make a positive impact for
the women in Whitley County.

Launched in 2003, the Giving Circle began providing mammogram vouchers to local
physicians to share with their patients in greatest need. Because of this landmark program,
recipients who would not otherwise be able to afford this vital test,
are receiving free mammograms at Parkview Whitley Hospital.

We hope you will join us in the crusade to improve the health of women in Whitley County.
The more support received, the more free mammograms can
be made available to those in need.
