Mission

The mission of Firefly Sisterhood is to foster one-to-one connections between women diagnosed with breast cancer and inspirational survivors. These connections are personal and intentional, with mentors providing support, encouragement, and a lifeline of hope. As greater understanding of the psychosocial aspects of dealing with breast cancer has emerged, Firefly Sisterhood program model meets many of these needs. The strength of the Firefly Sisterhood programming is the one-to-one match of a Firefly Peer Mentor Guide and a woman facing breast cancer. Firefly Peer Mentor Guides are women who have experienced breast cancer diagnosis, treatment, surgery, or reconstruction and are willing to offer their story, comfort, and inspiration to another woman facing a similar experience.
