Each year since 2019, Leonardo DRS has donated funds to HJF to #Stick it to Cancer during Breast Cancer Awareness month in October.
This year, Leonardo DRS celebrated five years of "going pink" at the annual AUSA conference to Raise Money for military women and family members suffering from breast cancer. As a result, they presented a donation of $20,000 to HJF to support breast cancer programs, including the Look Good, Feel Better program. The program teaches beauty techniques to help breast cancer patients manage the appearance-related side effects of cancer treatment.
"An individual's battle with breast cancer can be overwhelming. But there are resources to help patients faced with the stress of treatment find hope and encouragement. The Look Good, Feel Better program is just that. HJF is fortunate to be positioned in a way that enables us to facilitate the generous donation from Leonardo DRS so that it goes to those who need it most and helps spread that feeling of hope."
