Tigerlily Foundation
Tigerlily Foundation’s mission is to educate, advocate for, empower and support young women before, during and after cancer.
At this year’s STAT Summit in Boston, Tigerlily Foundation’s President & CEO Maimah Karmo joined a dynamic panel on Bridging Gaps in Gynecologic Cancer Care. She was joined by Dr. Ginger J. Gardner (Memorial Sloan Kettering, Foundation for Women's Cancer) and Leslie Amendola (Genmab), with the discussion moderated by Jesse McQuarters of STAT.
Maimah shared both her personal breast cancer journey and Tigerlily’s mission, highlighting the systemic barriers women face—from diagnosis through treatment—and the urgent need to center
equity, access, and patient voices. Through advocacy, partnerships, and equity-driven research, Tigerlily works every day to eliminate these barriers and empower women across their cancer journeys.
The conversation underscored that real change requires collaboration across advocates, clinicians, industry, and policymakers—ensuring women are supported beyond medicine.
