More Than Friends Organization: Bringing Help and Hope to Cancer Survivors

More Than Friends chairperson Elise Bourne-Busby talked about her breast cancer journey and the inspiration for the Latino/Caribbean/American initiative that is dedicated to servicing cancer survivors.

Surviving breast cancer pushed Elise Bourne-Busby and More Than Friends to service cancer survivors.

With a mission to walk for the cure, honor the fallen, service the struggling and celebrate the survivors, More Than Friends regularly gives out “caring and sharing” baskets to patients undergoing cancer treatment, provides information and resources for uninsured and under-insured cancer survivors and sponsors special events to support those with cancer.

Busby sat down with CURE® to discuss her journey with breast cancer and the inspiration for the Latino/Caribbean/American initiative that is dedicated to servicing cancer survivors.
