Sara's Project

Sara’s Project raises funds to provide education, early detection and support services to ease the challenges of breast cancer for people in Central and Eastern Oregon.

A fund of St. Charles Foundation, Sara’s Project works closely with St. Charles Cancer Center to serve anyone facing breast cancer in our region, regardless of where they receive cancer treatment.
