412Thrive

Each month, 412Thrive hosts an in-person social event where local Thrivers can engage in a fun activity, meet each other, share stories, and become a part of this always growing Tribe of individuals. 412Thrive is for individuals affected by breast cancer and genetic mutations that lead to breast cancer - all ages and all stages. This means that a breast cancer diagnosis is not required to join our Tribe. Whether you identify as a Previvor, Survivor, or Thriver, you are welcome here. Target population: individuals diagnosed with breast cancer, previvors with a genetic mutation that leads to cancer, who live within our Southwestern Pennsylvania service area. Geographic focus: Southwestern Pennsylvania

Through our private "Thrivers" Facebook group, we have created a community of support where any question can be asked. The fourth Tuesday of each month, we host a Zoom virtual “Happy Hour” with the goal "come as you are, leave happier." Virtual peer-to-peer support ensures that every Thriver has access to the social interaction they need. Target population: individuals diagnosed with breast cancer, previvors with a genetic mutation that leads to cancer, who live within our Southwestern Pennsylvania service area.

4/12 is a natural day to celebrate 412Thrive! Our inaugural 412Thrive Day was recognized by President Beverly Cwalina reading a proclamation from Allegheny County Council recognizing April 12, 2021 as 412Thrive Day in Allegheny County at Bombash & Earley, who produce natural bath products and were launching a line of products – “Sunflower Soul” – developed specifically for and to benefit 412Thrive. Similar proclamations were also made by Beaver, Butler, Washington, and Westmoreland County Commissioners.
We have big plans for community outreach in the future for 412Thrive Day!
