About Us

Founded in memory of Paulette A. Steeves, we are a non-profit organization on a mission to improve access, education, and community support as patients & survivors navigate cancer. 

"I founded the Chemo Divas Foundation after witnessing the complexities of my mother’s cancer care. During her battle with HTLV-1 associated ATLL (Adult T-cell Lymphoma), she faced unexpected job loss, unreasonably high insurance premiums, significant delays in treatment and more.

​

Our story is, unfortunately, all too common. Countless patients & survivors are disproportionately impacted by financial barriers limiting access to available cancer care resources. That’s why we’re committed to improving access to the information, lived experiences, and vital resources needed to advocate for comprehensive cancer care within our community."
