In Memory of Ethel Precht

Ethel Mae LeBleu Precht 1937 - 2017

Ethel started a breast cancer walk in 2004 to assist local breast cancer survivors in Cameron and Calcasieu Parishes. Thanks to tremendous local support, in 2008, she started a non profit organization named The Ethel Precht HOPE Breast Cancer Foundation, Incorporated. The impact of having breast cancer at age 50 and surviving it changed her life and our community forever.

The Foundation was formed in 2008 with the sole mission of providing 100% of proceeds directly to individuals in the Calcasieu and Cameron Parishes who are going through breast cancer treatment. To date, we have given away almost $500,000 directly to individuals in Calcasieu and Cameron Parishes.

OUR MISSION

Through personal, emotional and financial support, we will enhance the lives of local breast cancer survivors by providing educational venues to increase awareness, a support group to provide a network for emotional support and awarding a cash grant to ease the financial burden associated with a diagnosis of breast cancer.

SUPPORT GROUP

The Ethel Precht Breast Cancer Foundation is proud to offer a monthly support group for breast cancer survivors. There is no charge and everyone is welcome. Each month, survivors meet along with guest speakers at CHRISTUS Lake Area Hospital on Nelson Road to promote awareness and support for Breast Cancer Survivors. Meetings are on the third Thursday of every month and we strongly encourage all breast cancer survivors, their families, and friends to attend.
