Mommy and Me Cancer Foundation 501(c)3
According to the American Cancer Society, “about 2 out of 3 Americans are overweight or obese. Many Americans are also less physically active than they should be. Obesity increases the risk of many TYPES OF CANCER. It also increases the risk of heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and other health outcomes
, such as dying at an early age. While it is not clear exactly how excess body fat, consuming too many calories, and lack of physical activity raise cancer risk , there is no question that they are linked to an increased risk of many types of cancer and that they are a serious and growing health problem. Researchers estimated that 562,000 children are living with a parent who is in the early or late STAGES OF CANCER treatment. New research shows that 18% of newly diagnosed CANCER patients are parents to minor children. Our mission is to provide support to mothers who are battling life-threatening cancer who also raise minor children.
