About the Wellness Fund
Because of the generous help of supporters like you, Athens Medical Center Foundation's Walk for Women's Wellness makes it possible for medically underserved women in our community to receive mammograms, breast ultrasounds, prostheses and prosthetic apparel. The Fund also supports the Cindy Wilde Vogel Library.
Athens Medical Center Foundation's Women's Wellness Fund was initiated in 1995 and provides free screening and diagnostic mammograms, breast ultrasounds and prostheses to uninsured women (and men) in our community. It also provides education on breast cancer and other women's health issues through the Cindy Wilde Vogel Memorial Library located at the Kettering Breast Evaluation Center. Procedures may be scheduled at any accepting mammography facility in the area (not just a KMC affiliate) and the Women's Wellness Fund will cover the cost.
 Over 8000 women in the greater Dayton area have benefited from the more than $900,000 raised by this special event. That's because all net proceeds* from the Walk for Women's Wellness stay in our community and women are permitted to visit the medical facility of their choice.
In addition to meeting vital and potentially lifesaving healthcare needs, the Walk for Women's Wellness also serves to celebrate the women in our lives who have survived breast cancer, and to honor those who are no longer with us. Our mission is to ensure that cost is never an obstacle to breast health. If you, or someone you know, do not have the financial resources for a mammogram or prosthesis, you or they may qualify for assistance. Please call Kettering Breast Evaluation Center at (937) 299-0099 for qualification criteria. Requests are strictly confidential.
