Mission Statement

Well Beyond Breast Cancer’s mission is to ensure that everyone, regardless of race, age, educational background, and income, has access to the comprehensive cancer care they need to live well—during, after, and beyond breast cancer.

About This Cause

Well Beyond Breast Cancer (WBBC) is one of the first 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations dedicated to improving the quality of life of the breast cancer community by providing free appointments of Breast Cancer Rehabilitation and Lymphedema Therapy to those experiencing financial hardships. Breast Cancer Rehabilitation is more than just a service—it’s a path to reclaiming one’s life. This specialized field of physical and occupational therapy helps those affected by breast cancer to overcome cancer-related side effects such as pain, limited mobility, neuropathy, fatigue, etc. With rehabilitation, individuals can improve their physical, mental, and social well-being during and after breast cancer treatments, ultimately enhancing their quality of life, daily function, and independence. However, despite its crucial role in recovery, only 1-2% of cancer survivors receive this essential care. Many are unable to access the service due to limited financial means, inadequate insurance coverage, and systemic inequities linked to race, age, and socioeconomic status. This gap in cancer care means that far too many individuals are left struggling with long-term side effects that negatively impact their daily lives. Well Beyond Breast Cancer is committed to closing this cancer care gap and ensuring that everyone, regardless of race, age, educational background, and income, has access to the comprehensive cancer care they need to live well—during, after, and beyond breast cancer. The WBBC Financial Assistance Program funds appointments of Breast Cancer Rehabilitation for breast cancer survivors and previvors who are underinsured or uninsured across the United States.
