DONNA Mother’s Day 5K 2026

When I was told I had breast cancer. I was not only scared of the cancer but the financial burden on my family. I even considered not treating. Due to the fact I knew I didn’t have extra money to pay the bills that I would be getting. I tried other options I was told about  but most didn’t have any funds available for breast cancer. When I connected with Sherri Perry that all changed. She worked so hard to help me find resources I was available for. I did continue my treatment and I will always be grateful for her help and support. I can’t imagine the stress I would still have if it hadn’t been for her knowledge. Gave me the will to continue fighting this terrible disease.

The PAF and my case manager was very informative, helpful, and compassionate. They impacted my life greatly by reducing some stress and helping me to understand about all the different resources that are available to me. The grant I received from them was so needed, and I truly appreciate it. Thank you!

Donna Care Line has been a God sent Angel. Just when I think or ask myself; “when will it get better” here comes my answer. I have been and still are going through tough times in my life now. Not knowing how this is gonna get done, or wondering how long before I can actually get relief of it all. I will always have a testimony on my journey x2… but just knowing there’s an organization like Donna Care Line makes it a whole lot easier for me to believe that there is light at the end of the tunnel. So my deepest appreciation to you.

I was diagnosed with Stage 4 Metastatic Breast Cancer on March 1, 2021. My desperate call for help was received kindly, thoroughly, and with true professionalism. They inquired about my greatest needs which included Food, Housing, Eyeglasses, Dental Work, and so very much more. This experience was both humbling and empowering. I can look forward to tomorrow and hope I am living with any type of chronic illness. 

When I was diagnosed with breast cancer, my world was turned upside down. As a single mother, I was already juggling so many responsibilities, and the diagnosis added a level of stress and uncertainty I never expected. But the support I received from your program was a lifeline. Not only did you help me with practical needs like financial support, but the emotional support and understanding made me feel less alone during such a difficult time.
Your program gave me the strength to keep fighting.
