Our Mission
Crickett’s Answer for Cancer is
a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit organization* that was formed in memory of Crickett Julius, who passed away in October
of 2006, only four months after being diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer at the age of 39. As her mother
and cousin, we founded Crickett’s Answer for Cancer to support women with breast
cancer. We provide wigs, mastectomy and lymphedema products, massage, facials, and other pampering
services, as a way to help women feel feminine and beautiful despite losing their hair and/or breasts.
A woman with breast cancer often feels a loss of her identity and self-esteem
as a woman, but may consider these frivolous items for which she should not spend money. Like many women, she may
be busy caring for her children, family, and possibly even her own parents... all at once. As a result, she may
place herself last on the priority list. Crickett’s Answer for Cancer reminds
women with breast cancer to care for themselves too, as feeling good about themselves and having
time for relaxation are important for healing, and for managing life with breast cancer. By providing no-cost products
and services, we honor these courageous women with breast cancer, as well as the memory of Crickett Julius.
We rely on the kindness and generosity of our supporters, including a number of hair stylists, massage therapists,
and aestheticians who so graciously offer their services to the patients we serve. You may also support our cause
by becoming a volunteer, placing a coin collection canister in your business, sponsoring our golf tournament, or making a
tax-deductible donation to Crickett’s Answer for Cancer. In
each of these ways, you CAN make a difference in the life of a woman with breast cancer. If interested, please
contact us for more information.
~~Requests for
assistance are fulfilled on a first-come, first-served basis. Please contact us to ensure that we can honor your
request at this time.~~ *Crickett’s
Answer for Cancer is a registered 501(c)(3) public breast cancer charity as determined by the Internal Revenue
Service. Our tax ID # is 37-1571067. All donations are deductible to the fullest extent allowable by law.
