In 1990, 5-year-old Anisa, unfortunately, loss her dear mother to stage 4 breast cancer. Her mother was only 38 years old. After serving in the military, during her second tour in Iraq, Anisa saw a mirage of her dear mother, whom called upon her to serve and help, by way of direct support, breast cancer victims, patients, and survivors. Not only did Anisa want to honor her mother, she also realized the importance of this mission in the community, and so the critical work began.
I Will Survive, Inc. was established in 2010 out of Atlanta. Anisa Palmer started this grass rooted breast cancer organization with the full intent to not only help spread the awareness of breast cancer through education, but also be a support system for families impacted by this disease. I Will Survive, Inc.’s biggest program is economic support, in which the breast cancer organization raises money through donations, corporate sponsorships and grants, to help pay rent, utilities, travel cost to and from health facilities for both men and women currently battling the disease.
“It is important to get screened for breast cancer regularly, control your weight and exercise regularly, know your family history of breast cancer, quit smoking, limit the amount of alcohol you drink, and talk to your doctor about the risks of hormone replacement therapy. We believe, you will survive! There are many ways to lower your risks but you have to believe as well and start today. Focus on proactive prevention!” – Anisa Palmer
