THE JEWISH BREAST CANCER & OVARIAN CANCER COMMUNITY
Compassionate cancer support at every stage.
A link to hope when you need it most.
Sharsheret is Hebrew for chain.
That’s exactly what we are: A link to hope when individuals and families need a guiding hand and trusted support. Sharsheret is the only Jewish organization supporting people of all backgrounds facing breast cancer and ovarian cancer — those who are diagnosed and those at high risk. We also work closely with communities across the US and Israel through extensive outreach and education programs.
To date, we’ve educated and supported more than 275,000 women, men, families, health care professionals, community leaders, and students from all 50 states and Israel.
Whether you’re going in for a routine screening, reviewing your results, navigating a diagnosis or treatment, or exploring your genetic risk, Sharsheret is your link to support.
However cancer touches your life, Sharsheret is here for you.
