Savannah

YSC Savannah got off the ground in 2007 after a local survivor realized the need for a local group for young women diagnosed with breast cancer. Our service area includes Savannah, Hilton Head and surrounding areas. With more than 50 survivors and volunteers, YSC Savannah is recognized in the community as an invaluable resource in the area's cancer support network.


We currently meet once a month for You Are Not Alone (YANA) support and networking meetings and gather often for breast cancer events, including social outings such as concerts and community events. Our Annual Pink Tea and Tybee Beach event serves as a fun and unique way for our supporters and survivors alike to be involved in bringing awareness to the Savannah service area.
