Forever Friends of Hope Foundation
We are a group of rural women who began to raise money for breast cancer research after a dear friend and community member succumbed to this disease. After participating in the Run for the Cure for four years, we decided we wanted to help with the little things.
You should not have to worry about child care, power bills or mortgage payments when fighting for your life. That is where we come in.

Theresa Anne Frederickson (nee Priddell) was born on April 6, 1966. When she was 31, Theresa found a lump in her breast. The diagnosis was cancer. She began treatment, and it was successful, giving her quality of life for about 6 months. However, during a subsequent scan, she was told the cancer had returned. Ultimately, it also affected her liver and her lungs. She had two more rounds of treatment but never returned to work.
