The mission of the Tigerlily Foundation is to educate, empower, advocate for and provide support to young women – before, during and after breast cancer. The focus of this event is to bring to the forefront:

• Raise public awareness of the issues that they face
• Provide a forum to discuss ways to improve education, treatment, quality of life for young women living with breast cancer.
