Our Mission: Improving the quality of life for those impacted by breast cancer by funding needed support services locally.
A Different Shade of Pink.
The Step Sisters fight breast cancer differently – by raising funds to provide practical support services for area patients as they battle the disease.
Studies show that personal and financial difficulties can cause breast cancer patients to delay or even stop their treatment. By funding services such as transportation, childcare and house cleaning, our goal is to not only increase a patient’s quality of life, but also decrease her obstacles to treatment.
That’s how we fight breast cancer.
Why The Step Sisters?
Need Help?
Patients are eligible for services if they are referred by participating hospitals. Recipients of services are identified by Nurse Navigators who work closely with patients and are in the best position to determine who will benefit most from these services. We currently provide services to patients with: Inova Loudoun, Inova Fairfax, Inova Fair Oaks, Inova Alexandria, Novant Health, Virginia Cancer Specialists and Reston Hospital Center.
If you are a breast cancer patient in need of support, please contact the Nurse Navigator at the hospital where you receive treatment. They will help you access the services provided by the Step Sisters organization.
