| “The mission of the Foundation will be to provide financial assistance and comfort to breast cancer patients and their families. It is our hope that some of the hardships they are experiencing will be lessened.” |
On August 25, 2004 Christina Walsh, 32 year old wife and mother, lost her battle with breast cancer. Throughout her
2 ½ year fight she recognized the affect her disease had on her family and friends, both emotionally and financially. In
her final weeks, Christina became focused and determined to find a means of assisting and providing relief to other
breast cancer patients and their families. This Foundation has been established in Christina’s memory for the purpose of
carrying out her wishes.
Proceeds from the Christina S. Walsh Breast Cancer Foundation are directed towards furnishing financial assistance for
breast cancer patients via the Christina S. Walsh Breast Cancer Oncology Fund at University Medical Center
Princeton, The Patient Relief Fund at the Cancer Institute of New Jersey and the Christina S. Walsh Foundation Patient
Support Fund.
These programs support treatments for uninsured patients, medications and tests not covered by insurance, wigs, and
transportation to and from treatments, specially-designed camisoles for mastectomy patients, Hospice care, and other
financial burdens experienced by breast cancer patients. Additionally, the Christina S. Walsh Breast Cancer Foundation
assists the families of these patients who may require meals, hotel accommodations, hospital parking, etc. during this
difficult time.
It is the mission of the Christina S. Walsh Breast Cancer Foundation to help ease the burden faced by breast cancer
patients and their families.
The Christina S. Walsh Breast Cancer Foundation is a not-for-profit 501C (3) organization.
