Women Supporting Women: The Heart of Miles for Moms

Nominate a loved one fighting breast cancer for support through the Miles for Moms Beneficiary Program — submit a beneficiary application by June 1 to help us provide meaningful assistance when it’s needed most. 🎀

Every day, women show up for one another in big and small ways — through friendship, caregiving, encouragement, and advocacy. On International Women’s Day, we celebrate that spirit of solidarity and strength. At Miles for Moms, women supporting women isn’t just a message — it’s the foundation of everything we do.

Our organization is made by women, run by women, and powered by women volunteers who are passionate about making a difference. From our board members to our supporters and community partners, this movement is built by people who believe deeply in lifting one another up.

Breast cancer doesn’t just impact a person’s health — it can create an overwhelming financial burden for individuals and families. Medical bills, missed work, childcare needs, transportation, and everyday expenses can quickly add up during treatment. No one should have to face those challenges alone.

That’s why Miles for Moms exists.

We are a Massachusetts-based nonprofit working to raise awareness and funds for people fighting breast cancer and the massive financial burden that accompanies it. Through community events, fundraising, and direct support programs, we are making strides against the financial burden of breast cancer one mile at a time.

But we can’t do this work alone.

Our mission is strengthened by incredible sponsors, supporters, and community partners who share our belief that women deserve support, dignity, and access to resources throughout their cancer journey.

We’d like to give a special shout-out to The Pink Exchange for the inspiring work they are doing in our community.

The Pink Exchange is dedicated to supporting women on their breast cancer journey by providing a platform for the redistribution of gently used treatment-related goods. Through donated items that are offered free of charge, they help ensure that women have access to essential resources during treatment.

Partnerships like this demonstrate the power of women coming together to support one another in meaningful ways.

At the heart of everything we do is a simple message: You are not alone.

One of the most impactful ways we help families is through our Financial Aid Program, which provides direct assistance to individuals currently undergoing breast cancer treatment. But we can only help the women we know about — and that’s where our community comes in.

Do you know someone who is fighting breast cancer right now?
A friend. A sister. A coworker. A neighbor. A mom.

You can help us support them.

We invite you to nominate a loved one for financial assistance through our application. By sharing their story, you help us identify women in our community who could benefit from extra support during an incredibly difficult time.

Applications and nominations are open now, and the deadline to apply is June 1.

When women come together, incredible things happen. We lift each other higher, carry each other through hard moments, and remind one another that no one has to face life’s toughest battles alone.

Do you know a woman who could use our support? Nominate her today.
