Calling all survivors: We want to feature you!

By: Lindsey Jones

At Komen Columbus, we’ve had the honor of getting to know hundreds of strong, inspiring breast cancer survivors, and each survivor has their own story to tell. We admire the strength and courage it takes to overcome cancer and we want to hear about your specific journey.

We want to put a spotlight on our survivors to honor them and their determination to beat cancer, while also providing optimism and hope for those still fighting the battle. In order to do so, we are excited to announce “Feature Friday!”

Feature Friday will be a way to dedicate all of our social media channels to a single survivor each week to share photos, stories and thoughts or advice for others survivors, from survivors. Seeing as we aspire to inspire, we hope that seeing the fearlessness and bravery behind local faces will do just that.
