December 2023: Sense of Security
Sense of Security provides financial assistance while enhancing the quality of life for Colorado breast cancer patients in treatment.
In the effort to beat breast cancer, people and organizations raise funds for research, participate in support groups, and fund treatment for needy patients. Only patients and their families worry about other basic needs such as housing, food, child care or transportation. Often moderate-to-low-income people diagnosed with breast cancer become incapacitated and unable to work and earn an income. Without an income, one cannot pay bills that come due each month. Financial stressors contribute to health stressors, affecting a patient's ability to seek treatment, heal and recover.
The need doesn't end with the patient. Over 80 percent of our applicants have children and health and financial stresses affect children, families, and the lives of everyone involved.
Sense of Security has provided more than $2.2 million toward housing, utilities, groceries, transportation, insurance premiums, and other basic living expenses of breast cancer patients in treatment and have assisted nearly 2,200 Coloradans living with breast cancer in 56 counties statewide - and counting!
