Our 3rd Annual Brest Cancer Awareness Luncheon for the Golden Gems was a beautiful celebration of survivors, honoring fighters, and remembering angels affected by breast cancer.

Thank you to our guest speakers from Temple University Fox Chase Cancer Center physicians Dr. Allison A. Aggon, DO, FACOS and Dr. Nicole M. Melchior, DO, FACOS, for sharing valuable information on breast cancer awareness, survivorship, wellness, and prevention.

We are always grateful for the presence of Rev. Dr. Lorina Marshall-Blake, IBX Consultant and breast cancer survivor. She shared an inspiring message of faith, resilience, courage, and hope through her personal cancer journey.

Thank you to Independence Blue Cross for sponsoring the meals provided for the Gems to enjoy!
