Founded in Milwaukee in 1999, ABCD: After Breast Cancer Diagnosis offers free, personalized emotional support to people affected by breast cancer nationwide. Through its unique Mentor Match program, individuals are paired with trained volunteer Mentors who share similar diagnoses and lived experiences, providing understanding, encouragement, and hope.
ABCD supports patients, survivors, those living with metastatic breast cancer, people at high risk, caregivers, family members, and friends. Since its founding by Milwaukee journalist Melodie Wilson Oldenburg, the organization has helped more than 113,000 people find meaningful connections during challenging times.
