At Jennie Edmundson Hospital, we know that early detection of breast cancer is key. That’s why the Jennie Edmundson Foundation’s Breast Health Fund provides mammograms to uninsured and under-insured patients at Methodist Jennie Edmundson Hospital and our Breast Health Center. When we detect cancer earlier, it is easier to overcome!

You can support our Breast Health Fund in several ways! First, you can donate to the Breast Health Fund directly and you can participate in Pink Out Southwest Iowa every October. Pink Out Southwest Iowa is a month-long series of opportunities that include:

  • T-Shirt Sponsorship 
  • T-Shirt Sales (we encourage those who purchase to wear their Pink Out shirt each Friday in October)
  • Events hosted by local businesses and organizations! Past events have included Pinkercise, Save the Twins Poker Run and more! Follow us on Facebook and Instagram  to get the latest on Pink Out events!

Once diagnosed, breast cancer patients can also receive assistance through our Spirit of Courage Charitable Patient Care Fund.

When I really needed it you guys came through - thank you. You really can never plan for these kinds of things to happen to you. The staff of the Breast Health Center really helped us find the financial resources we needed to get us through treatment.
