Breast Friends Pune is an initiative of the Nag Foundation that began in 2010 to help patients and their families cope with the diagnosis and treatment of cancer.

Cancer is a traumatic illness and affects patients and caregivers physically, psychologically and emotionally.

Breast Friends is a Support group that allows patients to share personal experiences and feelings, share coping strategies and knowledge of the disease and the treatments. The support group also fills in for the gap that may exist between patient and their treatment team

The Breast Friends Support Group emphasizes 3 concepts of survivorship:

To connect with others having been through breast cancer

To celebrate their lives after breast cancer with purpose ,positivity and fun

To conquer the disease and the fear associated with it thus imparting the correct message to others with this diagnosis

The Breast Friend’s Support Group meets every second Saturday of the month and is open to all patients, survivors and caregivers.
