Krewe du YaYas Keeping Abreast Foundation, Inc.
Mission Statement: To inspire hope and enhance life for those affected by breast cancer through early detection, advocacy, education and support services.
The Krewe du YaYas was formed in 2002. Our Keeping Abreast Foundation officially became a 501(c)3 non-profit organization in 2010.
The Keeping Abreast Foundation has partnerships with Woodlands Medical Specialists, The Women's Group and South Baldwin Regional Medical Center. These partnerships have allowed our organization to help individuals in our community receive necessary breast health related screening and diagnostic services.
Our upcoming events will allow us to help further our mission by:
Offsetting housecleaning costs for those in recovery
Assisting with the purchase of wigs and mastectomy bras
Offsetting the expense of costly medications
Sponsoring families in crisis
Paying for mammograms to those who can't otherwise afford them.
Since our mammography program began, The Keeping Abreast Foundation has provided over 2789 mammograms and other diagnostic services to individuals across the Florida/Alabama Panhandle region.
Our programs have directly impacted approximately 2114 individuals in our area!
