In anticipation of the annual Shasheret Luncheon, Nachum welcomed Elana Silber, CEO of Sharsheret, to this morning’s JM in the AM to preview Sharsheret’s Chai Anniversary celebration. From the Sharsheret website: “Sharsheret is a national not-for-profit organization supporting young Jewish women and their families facing breast cancer. Our mission is to offer a community of support to women, of all Jewish backgrounds, diagnosed with breast cancer or at increased genetic risk, by fostering culturally-relevant individualized connections with networks of peers, health professionals, and related resources.
While our expertise is in young women and Jewish families as related to breast cancer and ovarian cancer, Sharsheret programs serve all women and men.”
