We refuse to let the emotional, physical, and financial cost of a cancer diagnosis stand between young women and a full life after beating this disease.

After her *third* cancer diagnosis before age 40, our founder Amanda Rice channeled her frustration with reproductive health into a nonprofit.
The countdown to Great Egg Freeze Season 2023 had begun! Join us on March 5 in San Francisco for kickoff 🥶🐣
When Stephanie was diagnosed with breast cancer at age 23, she knew she wanted to have children and she knew she wanted have the option to. Thanks to our partnership with @tmrwlifesciences Stephanie is one of 12 survivors who won’t have to worry about the fees and security of their frozen eggs.
A look back at 2022 as we ring in 2023! Thank you to all who’ve enjoyed the ride with us this past year. We can’t wait to see what 2023 has in store for our community: survivors, supporters, fertility partners and the Chick Mission Chicks🤩
When Sarah was battling cancer, her New Jersey health insurance didn’t cover her fertility preservation, as it wasn’t mandatory and she felt that there was no way she’d be able to pay on her own. Thankfully, TMRW Life Sciences stepped in to provide Sarah and 11 other recipients free egg storage for life and she won’t see another bill again.
#ThrowbackThursday to our 4th Annual Gala✨Two months later (and everyday!) we’re still celebrating our amazing survivors, partners, medical providers and supporters who fuel our mission.
After her cancer diagnosis, Abby felt overwhelmed by the healthcare expenses on top of undergoing treatment, and having having to plan for her future before she was ready. Thanks to TMRW Life Sciences, Abby, as one of our 12 recipients of free egg storage for life, won’t have to worry about that one bill each year.

At our Annual Gala in October, in partnership with TMRW Life Sciences, we surprised our keynote speaker Maryline with free egg storage for life. We are incredibly appreciative of TMRW Life Sciences for generously preserving these cancer survivors’ ability to choose when they’d like to start a family, rather than worrying about paying that annual storage bill.
Meet Roshni, one of 12 grantees of free egg storage for life, thanks to our partnership with TMRW Life Sciences. Our Hope Grant Program allows women facing fertility threatening treatment to make their family decisions rather than let cancer decide for them. TMRW Life Sciences is generously storing and protecting this option will further allow cancer patients to focus on rebuilding their lives after cancer rather than finances.

Thankful for community that brings hope to women with cancer today. 🦃
To every supporter, our fertility partners, Board and volunteer Peeps, survivors who share their stories, women still fighting …. The Chick Mission is grateful for you this day …. And everyday. 🐥
There never truly is ‘life after cancer.’ Instead, we grow around the experience and it comes part of who we are…not an illness that was endured. But what to do with that knowledge and responsibility to help those who come after you?

For @emmylou129 (a breast cancer survivor and new mom), it’s about finding a way to support future parents…even those who are fear being a mother is an ‘if’ instead of a ‘when’. Emily continues to navigate two dualities: motherhood as a survivor and survivorhood as a mother. To celebrate her birthday, create a reason I can post photos of Myles (9 Months) and to kickoff a holiday season of gratitude - she is ‘flipping forward’ her energy and experience to raise funds for our Hope Grant Program.

Support Emily’s mission to help newly diagnosed cancer patients preserve their fertility so they may also create a future family. #linkinbio
