Buddy Program
If you’d like to speak with someone who has had a similar diagnosis, surgery, treatment, or life experience, BACC can match you with a Buddy.
Our Buddies are volunteer cancer survivors who have experienced a similar diagnosis or treatment, or can relate to you in other ways. They share their personal experiences to help inform, support, and connect you throughout your cancer experience.
Please contact the Helpline at info@bayareacancer.org or (650) 326-6686 to schedule your session.
Interested in becoming a Buddy?
If you’re a breast or ovarian cancer survivor one year out of treatment and want to support others through a shared experience, we’d love to hear from you. Our Buddy volunteers make a meaningful difference by offering empathy, hope, and practical insight.
