The AWOG Heart Pillow Project
Inspired by a member's experience at a FAWCO conference, this initiative supports women battling breast cancer. It is a testament to our charitable character that has blossomed into a beacon of hope.
Every year we come together to make heart pillows that offer comfort and solace to those undergoing treatment. From 2007, AWOG has distributed over 10,000 heart pillows to patients in Greece. Learn more about this initiative here.
From breast cancer warrior, Maria K:
"A big thank you on behalf of all women suffering from breast cancer! Your contribution is very sweet and very relieving. I received these two heart pillows from the General Oncological Hospital of Kifisia Oi Agioi Anargyroi during my hospitalization."
"Ένα μεγάλο ευχαριστώ εκ μέρους όλων των γυναικών που ταλαιπωρούμαστε από τον καρκίνο του μαστού!!! Πολύ γλυκιά και πολύ ανακουφιστική η συνεισφορά σας."
