In the wild, female elephants are known as fierce protectors. When one of their sisters is distressed, they circle around and close tight to support her. At H4TG, we are the same. We invite you to lean on us to be your elephant. We will encourage you through love, joy, and laughter. We will give you virtual and actual hugs. We will help you go beyond your diagnosis and live life with an exclamation point!
We provide a comprehensive approach to breast cancer education and support, including physician-led workshops on specific topics to empower self-advocacy. Members access extensive resources through an online Member Hub and a guide on breast cancer, risk management, early detection, and healthy living. We also offer self-care tips emphasizing the mind-body-spirit connection, encouraging active participation in health.
We offer tailored support to meet our members' diverse needs. Our team leads specialized support groups that complement peer-led gatherings for younger women. We also provide workshops and wellness days on grief, trauma, metastatic diagnosis, and long-term survivorship. Recognizing that members may need extra assistance, we also offer personalized conversations to deliver specific strategies, resources, and referrals for each member’s needs.
We foster a supportive community through peer-focused initiatives. Trained facilitators lead monthly gatherings in non-clinical settings, offering social and emotional support that enhances well-being. We provide activities designed to promote bonding and facilitate emotional healing within a safe, inclusive environment. These experiences encourage connectedness and lasting relationships. Members also access diverse activities promoting healing, personal growth, and confidence-building, helping them navigate their journey with resilience and a strong support network.
