The Women's Wellness Fund has provided a $3,500 donation to Desert Imaging to expand access to preventative breast cancer screenings. This effort is part of a broader collaboration with KFOX to increase awareness during the month of October.
Why it matters
The partnership aims to remove financial barriers for local women seeking mammograms, helping to ensure earlier detection of breast cancer. By providing these funds, the initiative seeks to prevent the loss of loved ones through increased screening accessibility.
Desert Imaging brings 38 years of experience performing mammograms to the partnership. The donation total of $3,500 is intended to support women who lack the financial resources to obtain screenings.
