Sullivan Center -- for Wellness & Disease Prevention in Maine

The Sullivan Center is an organization dedicated to helping women with breast cancer issues and wellness. It was started by a woman who lost a friend to breast cancer and has battled breast cancer herself. Finding it difficult to access services they both needed, Tammy decided to fill the void by creating this center for wellness.
Services they offer are:

• Acupuncture
• Reiki
• A Personal Nutrition Program
• Educational Programs
• A Gently Used Boutique -- Women who have breast cancer often lose a lot of weight and need to replace a whole wardrobe. On top of the medical costs associated with surgery most women can’t afford to replace all of their clothes. The Sullivan Center takes donated clothing – laundered and in good shape -- and sells the items for $3 to $5 each, reducing the burden and stress on women with breast cancer.

Mastectomy Essentials -- They carry a line of mastectomy bras, camisoles, lingerie, swimwear and sun protective clothing often not covered by insurance.

The Sullivan Center is located at 895 Portland Road Route 1 Saco, Maine 04072. (207) 571-9329
Please consider a donation of gently used clothing or a few dollars.

Women who are suffering with breast cancer have to deal with the physical stresses of chemotherapy, surgery, plus the mental and emotional difficulties of not being in a position to care for their families.
If you know of a woman with breast cancer you might consider taking a meal or a fruit basket to help her and her family. Doing a few chores or babysitting may be just what she needs to ease her mind for awhile.
