Women Supporting Women is a grassroots organization that serves the Eastern Shore. Our mission is to provide awareness, education and support to all those affected by breast cancer. Local Services. Local Support.
Background: WSW was started by three local women: Harriette Fine, Carol Prager, and Sue Revelle. The first meeting of Women Supporting Women was in July 1993 in the waiting room of the Radiation Department of Peninsula Regional Medical Center. Throughout the years our office has changed locations and currently resides off of Rt. 50 at 1320 Belmont Ave. Ste. 402. Some of our services include prosthetic breast fittings, wigs, educational tote bags and community related events to educate the public. All of our services are FREE.
In addition to our main office, support groups are held in the surrounding counties of Wicomico, Worcester, Somerset, and Dorchester. Dates and times may vary.
This organization is tax exempt and we receive funding from grants, donations through community organizations as well as businesses and individuals. All contributions remain here on the Shore and are returned to our community in various ways.
