THE FIREFLY SISTERHOOD

About Us

Firefly Sisterhood provides one-to-one social and emotional support to women who have been impacted by a breast cancer diagnosis. We are founded and based in the Twin Cities. While most of our matches are within the Twin Cities, Greater MN, and Western Wisconsin, we can support women from coast to coast. At the Firefly Sisterhood, we exist to bring light and hope to women who have experienced a breast cancer diagnosis. Whether you've just received a breast cancer diagnosis or your decades past it, we will match you with an inspirational survivor whose experience is similar to yours.

Our Mission:

The mission of Firefly Sisterhood is to foster a one-to-one connection between women impacted by breast cancer and inspirational survivors that serve as peer mentor guides. Our goal is a future where no woman faces breast cancer alone.
