After her *third* cancer diagnosis before age 40, our founder Amanda Rice channeled her frustration with reproductive health into a nonprofit.
On Thursday, our Executive Director, Tracy Weiss, introduced our founder + CEO, Amanda Rice, recipient of The Pink Agenda’s ICON Award 💗🥹
Thank you @thepinkagenda for the recognition — and for hosting a beautiful night celebrating community and progress in cancer care. It was an honor to be a part of the night!
Stay tuned for more updates from the fabulous evening ✨
Congratulations to our fearless founder and CEO, who will be recognized with the Icon Award tonight at @thepinkagenda’s gala in TriBeCa! 🗽💗
It’s through her first-hand frustration and pain with insurance denying her fertility preservation benefits ahead of cancer treatments that The Chick Mission gained its footing - and has since carried that fiery momentum.
The results, today? Amanda continues to advocate at the state level for inclusive oncofertility care, educate peers and businesses about fertility care, help hundreds of young women through the Hope Grant program and cultivate a flock of survivors and supporters…and so much more 🐥🥹
Ricey, you inspire us all - and we’re so proud of the recognition you’re receiving tonight!! 💖

ICYMI: The Chick Mission has an inspiring squad of survivors and supporters racing 26.2 in support of brighter fertility futures this November!
🏃♀️ if you haven’t already, head to the link in bio to meet the full dream team — and show your support! 💛
Each year, an estimated 310,720 women are diagnosed with Breast Cancer in the United States. Thanks to breakthroughs in medicine, advocacy efforts and access to care, the mortality rates of the disease have decreased by 44% since the 1980s. While more young adults are being diagnosed with cancer, more young adults are also surviving - and thriving! Living very full, bright lives. And for many of these young women, their post-treatment chapters still include dreams of starting a family.
Tomorrow, I could not be more thrilled to speak with @cbsmornings on the impact The Chick Mission has made for thousands of young women, through our advocacy efforts and Hope Grant program. Together, we have gifted these young women hope for the future - and given them the option to decide whether they want to have children. It’s not cancer’s choice, it’s theirs.
Thank you to the flock who constantly fights for these young, inspiring women - and helps us to create tangible impact.
Tune in tomorrow during the 8am hour for the full story 💓
