Mammogram Services
Our group has paid for mammograms for uninsured and underinsured women in the Valley for several years. We have given grants to Clinton and Sullivan Hospitals, Paris, IL hospital, St. Vincent's in Brazil, Hope Foundation, and Union Hospital Foundation for this purpose. The mammograms are paid for by the annual "Paint the Town Pink" carnation sale on the Friday before Mother's Day. Also, we decorated a shelter in Deming Park at Christmas and a bank at Christmas several years for this purpose.
We want women to find breast cancer early. It can mean the difference between having a lumpectomy and a mastectomy, needing chemotherapy or not, and having radiation or no radiation.
If you need help in securing a mammogram, call one of the following:
