Karen Wellington Foundation for LIVING with Breast Cancer

Cincinnati, OH, US • 5 - 9 Employees
Non-Profit

Our StoryWe're not your ordinary cancer foundation. Nope. Not at all. Our focus is on FUN. Fun NOW, to be specific. We put FUN on the calendars of women and families LIVING with breast cancer – women with calendars full of chemo and radiation treatments, doctors' appointments, tests, and more tests. Not-fun-stuff. Our Recipients are special ladies and families who are not done LIVING yet. We send them on family vacations, relaxing spa days with sisters, dinners out with best friends, concerts, road trips and other FUN-ONLY activities .We're a diverse, inclusive, and growing group of friends in ten chapters throughout the U.S.. Friends who know how to have fun and, more importantly, get excited about giving FUN to others.What started as Karen's dream to send one family each year on a special vacation once she beat cancer has blossomed! Over the past ten years we have sent more than 400 special ladies on important vacations, and provided more than 150 spa days and other crazy gifts of FUN. In 2017 alone, we sent 85 families on vacation! We hope to do even more in 2018.We rely on the generosity of people to donate a week a year of their vacation homes or timeshares, airline miles or cash. Our Giving Committee leverages this generosity, connects the dots, and makes some magic happen. Before it's too late. #FunNow!
