Memorial and Honorarium Donations
Join us in the battle against breast cancer by remembering or honoring someone special in your life. Together we can win the fight against breast cancer.
The Gloria Gemma Breast Cancer Resource Foundation offers memorial and honor giving opportunities to those who wish to make a gift in memory of a friend or loved one, or to honor someone who is special in their lives. It is a meaningful way to honor someone while supporting the Foundation’s mission to help local breast cancer organizations in their fight to raise breast cancer awareness, to work for its prevention and to bring comfort and help to patients and families in our community.
When a memorial or honor gift is received, the Foundation will promptly send a personalized tribute card to the person or family indicated notifying them of your thoughtful donation. We can also include a personal message. Donations are tax-deductible and the donor receives acknowledgement of their donation.
