Who We Are
What does a sister do when you need help? Maybe she watches your kids or cooks a meal for you. She doesn’t ask what you need because she already knows. She just pitches in and helps.
The Step Sisters are Northern Virginia women and men that have all been affected in some way by breast cancer. Some of us are survivors, others are caregivers, friends and family. But we are all united in our goal to step in to help, just as a sister would.
What We Do
Our organization has been fighting breast cancer since 2005, when a small group of neighbors joined together to raise funds for research. We named ourselves The Step Sisters to represent the support family members provide to one another during times of crisis.
After repeatedly seeing the impact the disease had on patients and their families, members, Ashley Campolattaro and Angela Fuentes, decided to revise the mission to assist patients throughout treatment.
Over the years we have seen neighbors, friends and family members diagnosed with the disease and it’s clear that supporting patients as they battle the disease is a different, yet vital approach to fighting breast cancer.
No patient should have to stop or even delay her treatment due to her personal circumstances and no patient should feel that she is fighting breast cancer alone.
