Their mission, in line with the Foundation's mission, is to ensure that all women within the greater Phoenixville area have access to information and screenings.

They organize an annual fundraiser "Dressing on a Dime". The goal of this event is to; raise awareness of breast cancer and other cancers affecting women, raise much-needed funds to assist with cancer screenings and diagnostics, and to celebrate the lives of men and women living with cancer.
