Our Mission

OUR MISSION

The mission of Laini Fluellen Charities, Inc. is to continue the work of the organization’s namesake, improving health outcomes for African-American and Hispanic women at high risk for TNBC and those diagnosed with breast cancer by:

  1. Raising funds for the research and development of treatments for triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC)* and mammogram subsidies.
  2. Providing spiritual and educational support through seminars, awareness campaigns and website resources.      
  3. Providing tools and care coordination materials to local hospitals to help patients navigate the treatment process.  

* TNBC or triple-negative breast cancer is an aggressive tumor that disproportionately affects African-American and Hispanic women and results in lower survival rates.
