The Sisterhood Support Fund

“Together, we lift one another.”

Offering Support on your Breast Cancer Journey

The Sisterhood Support Fund is designed to ease the financial burden faced by individuals undergoing treatment for breast cancer. We understand first-hand that the journey to recovery is not only physically and emotionally demanding - but also financially challenging.

How the Fund Helps

Funds are capped at $500 / application and may be used towards:

• Medical Expenses and Self-Care (not covered by provincial programs or secondary insurance): Assistance with wigs, prosthetics, head coverings, lymphedema garments and self-care (including massage, skin and nail care).

• Transportation: Help with travel costs to and from medical appointments, including hospital parking fees. Daily Living Support: Financial aid for groceries, utilities, childcare, and other essential needs.

How to Learn More

Breast cancer patients or medical practitioners in Grey and Bruce counties may contact Bernie’s Boat via email at info@berniesboat.ca. We believe that healing should never be hindered by financial hardship. The Sisterhood Support Fund is funded in part by generous donors and community partners.
