Clark Family Breast Cancer Services, Inc.

The Clark Family Breast Cancer Services, Inc. was established in October, 2005 in memory of our sister, Brenda L. Clark, who died from breast cancer in June, 2005 at the age of 53.  Just ten months earlier, in August, 2004 we had lost another sister, Barbara, age 46.  Barbara fought the disease for eleven years.  Two years earlier, our mother, Elizabeth passed away from breast cancer.  Her mother, our grandmother, also died from breast cancer.  A third sister, Darnetta was  diagnosed at the age of 46 after she discovered a lump on her breast while performing a breast self-examination.  She has been in remission for 5 years now, after having to undergo a double mastectomy.

Our sister, Darnetta, is the gleam of hope that a cure for breast cancer will be found in the near future; a breast cancer survivor for life, not just years.

                       Mission Statement

The mission of the Clark Family Breast Cancer Services, Inc. is to educate, motivate and support, not just the individual diagnosed with breast cancer, but their entire family as well.

  Through Education, we spread awareness.

     Through Motivation, we uplift their spirits.

           With Support, we will stand by them every

                         step of the way.
