WELCOME!
CURE MOMMY's BREAST CANCER is a non-profit charitable organization, formed in 2000 shortly after our founder; Carmela Short was diagnosed with the disease.
Our sole purpose is to provide financial assistance, moral support, and educational information to any man, woman or child in need of assistance while suffering the burdens of this disease as well as other forms of cancer.
Since the forming of Cure Mommy’s Breast Cancer, we have raised over $300,000. Since we are strictly run by volunteers, approximately 98˘ of every dollar we raise directly helps someone in need.
Some examples of how we have helped:
- Paid Medical Insurance Premiums
- Paid rent & utility bills of a patient unable to work during her treatment
- Paid for a special bed for patient with cancer of the spine
- Paid for home cleaning services for a cancer patient
- Paid for transportation costs to special school for sick child
We also sponsor a scholarship fund at Plainedge High School. For the 2007 year we granted (7) $1000, scholarships. They were granted in the following areas: Academics, Sports & Music. This year all students had a family member affected by cancer.
Each year we hold a Golf Outing & Fall Event in efforts to raise money. We are currently a beneficiary organization of the Long Island 2 Day Walk To Fight Breast Cancer.
“Cure Mommy’s Breast Cancer” is reaching out to you for any support you are able to give. You can donate money or it may in the form of clothing, electronics or gift certificates- anything that we can use as a raffle prize on the day of one of our events.
