Wow, what an amazing healing process Overcomers provides! They have created a safe, compassionate, God loving environment to share your hurts with ladies who have also experienced the same hurts. I am beyond grateful for the support I receive and able to give through this non-profit.

Overcomers truly helped me during a time when I felt very alone coming out of cancer treatment. I met so many amazing women with incredible stories, and I discovered many areas of my life that still needed healing. This program helped me walk through that healing and begin to embrace the new me, with hope.

It is a great honor to teach women at these workshops, classes and retreats. We provide them with the tools and resources to move forward and begin to rebuild their lives after a breast cancer diagnosis. We believe that every life matters. To watch our team members minister and give of their time and service to their fellow pink sisters is a true blessing.

Overcomers has empowered and equipped me with the tools I needed to live out my “new” normal life after breast cancer. So many challenges we face as breast cancer survivors, mentally, emotionally and physically. Such a powerful workshop that focuses on healing with god as the center of our healing!

Overcomers has been a positive part of my breast cancer journey. It has helped me to find a new normal for myself after walking down the cancer path. I have made lifelong friends and found sisters who I can relate to on a regular basis. It has helped me to grow as a person and find strength that I thought I had lost. Wonderful group of women.

Overcomers has changed my life in so many ways. While participating in Overcomers, I began to see and feel the healing of my life unfold. I was able to realize the positive changes in my life even through all the hurt.

What a blessing Overcomers has been in my life. This faith based, support group addresses the difficult obstacles a breast cancer survivor endures. Each week was a new, valuable topic with different mentors and members of the medical community, sharing inspiration and coping tools, all the while providing a safe environment of reflection and conversation. I am so very thankful and blessed to have participated and cherish all of the individuals who have contributed love and support, along our journey.

Overcomes was a critical part of my healing. I didn’t realize that the most challenging part, was not getting the diagnosis for the first time or even the treatment that followed, but what was to come when everything was over with. I was broken emotionally. I described it as a “funk”. Overcomers helped out me on a healing path of joy and hope! An extra bonus was meeting so many strong, inspirational women!

Breast cancer has way of robbing you of your identity and confidence. I was diagnosed in 2014 had chemo then two years later had a recurrence and had to start all over again. I was broken and felt very alone. Overcomers helped me through all of that. This group of strong, supportive and courageous women helped me put the pieces back together. I have also formed bonds and friendships with people which is what I had been searching for. I’m forever grateful to be a part of such a wonderful organization.
Cecillia V.
The Overcomers workshop lifted me up spiritually and emotionally. It helped me overcome my greatest fears with metastatic breast cancer. The support I received was lovingly overwhelming!
Paul S.
Facilitating the men’s workshop for the husbands of breast cancer survivors has given me an outlet to share my experience with others. Watching your wife go through breast cancer leaves you feeling helpless at times. By teaching this class, I am able to encourage other husbands in their role as caregivers.
Jennifer S.
Since being diagnosed with stage 3 ductal carcinoma in June 2017, my journey through breast cancer has been a long, winding road. I have had a double mastectomy surgery, 16 rounds of chemotherapy, and am currently in radiation therapy(30 treatments). Being a part of Overcomers has been nothing short of a true blessing. It’s a challenge to cope with cancer,- mind , body , and spirit. This organization has provided the support and tools I so desperately needed to ease my pain and to move forward in a positive direction with my life. I have been so inspired, I’ve chosen to go into Overcomers leadership to help others through their struggles! I would recommend Overcomers to anyone on their journey through cancer. My life will never be the same.
Sally D.
How do I describe the experience?!?! One word…Sisterhood!! I have met so many leaders in this group and each of them have been so kind and embracing. They truly have a passion for helping others and go to great lengths to make sure you are not alone. I couldn’t have met a more supportive group of ladies. I look forward to attending the classes and completing my healing process.
Stephanie C.
DON’T STOP WON’T STOP! Being part of the Overcomers class was a blessing that I truly needed for so long. I was not alone in my journey. Genny, Trenell, Jessica, and the rest of the Overcomers staff took care of us, welcomed us, and was there throughout my recognition of knowing WE as SURVIVORS are absolutely FABULOUS PINK DIVAS!
Alexander S.
Volunteering with Overcomers has been an amazing experience. Not only is it a great place to volunteer, but the changes you see in the women’s lives spiritually, mentally, and physically that go through the workshops is incredible. If you are a breast cancer survivor looking for a workshop, I highly recommend Overcomers!
Jen R.
I’ve learned that fear is my biggest enemy and by acknowledging those fears and allowing myself to be vulnerable again, I’ve discovered purpose and joy in each and every day.
Stacey S.
Life is a journey, appreciate each day you are blessed with and prepare yourself for any unexpected paths you take in life. These paths may be very scary and dangerous, but in the end, you will become a more courageous and strong person for having faced it head-on.
Maurice E.
Overcomers has had a tremendous impact on my life. When my wife embarked on her breast cancer journey, we had know idea why she was going through this. Today, we know it was because God need us to share our testimony. Overcomers has given both her and I (through the caregivers course) to be there for others who are facing the same challenge.
Valentina C.
The Overcomers Class was a Blessing in my life. All these amazing women share their own journeys as Breast Cancer Survivors to help someone like me to rebuild my life. I made many friends along this journey and have learned that God doesn’t ever give you something you can’t handle. Thank you Pink Sisters for this amazing experience.
