We are thrilled to announce The Firefly Sisterhood as our charity partner for the month of January! That means for the entire month, every cat video you watch here on our site, or direct donation you make via our “donate meow” page, helps us raise money in support of their mission.

Firefly Sisterhood fosters community-based one-to-one connections between women recently diagnosed with breast cancer and inspirational survivors.  Having someone to talk with who has been where you are has a powerful effect on wellbeing.

The strength of Firefly programming lays in the one-to-one match of a Firefly mentor and a woman in active treatment for breast cancer. Mentors are women who have experienced a breast cancer diagnosis, treatment, surgery or reconstruction and are willing to offer their story, comfort and encouragement to another woman facing a similar experience.
