Florida Breast Health Initiative Founder and President Andrea Ivory is one of only 10 nationwide nominees for L’Oreal’s prestigious “Women of Worth” Award.
One of these 10 honorees and her charitable cause will be selected as the “National Woman Of Worth Honoree” by the public at large via online voting. Her charity will receive a donation of $25,000 from L’Oréal Paris in her name, in addition to national recognition for both her cause and her efforts.
About the “Women of Worth” Award
More than 30 years ago, L’Oréal coined the phrase “Because I’m Worth It” to celebrate a woman’s worth and build her self-esteem. In 1997, as an extension of this sentiment, L’Oréal Paris partnered with The Ovarian Cancer Research Fund to raise money and awareness in the fight against ovarian cancer.
Recently, L’Oréal established the “Women Of Worth” – a grassroots program and award that honors women who serve others in their communities.
Who is a Woman Of Worth? She’s an inspiring volunteer, an outstanding achiever, and a beautiful person who’s making a difference in her community. Whether she’s setting up literacy programs, organizing children’s initiatives, or spearheading life-saving charitable organizations, her mind and door are always open. Her devotion is endless.
About the Florida Breast Health Initiative
The Florida Breast Health Initiative (“FBHI”) was established as a non-profit organization by Andrea Ivory. As a breast cancer survivor, she was thankful for the access she had to early detection resources and ensuing treatment that saved her life. Throughout her recovery, she thought about those who were losing their fight with breast cancer because they did not detect a problem early enough and lacked access to available treatment.
In seeking a solution, Andrea’s vision of FBHI was realized as a mobile neighborhood outreach to increase awareness of breast health and access for screening to women who are uninsured and underserved by the health care system.
Because there is no cure for breast cancer, FBHI has been founded on the fact that early detection saves lives. It serves neighborhoods that are most likely to have the highest concentration of underserved women, then FBHI volunteers walk door-to-door providing breast health awareness, tools to perform breast self-examinations, free mammograms for qualified women, referrals for low or at-cost screening, assistance to those participants requiring additional screening and treatment.
The distinguished FBHI Board of Directors is comprised of both men and women who are business professionals, community leaders and breast cancer survivors from Miami-Dade and Broward County, Florida. Their purpose and unilateral goal is for FBHI to provide a no cost, proactive, preventative approach to help eradicate breast cancer as a life-threatening disease.
