About The Bloom Club
This club was created by two female cancer survivors who longed for connection during their treatment throughout the pandemic. With no one to attend chemotherapy or radiation with, both Sara & Shanna found their experience to be isolating. At the Cancer Centre, it was difficult to relate to others because of the vast age differences. This idea was born out of a longing for connection with others.
F.A.Q.
What is The Bloom Club?
The Bloom Club is a space for young women to discuss the challenges of a cancer diagnosis while also enjoying adventures and experiences with other young women who understand. We have been through enough trauma, and we could all use adventures that bring joy to our lives. In the future, we hope to offer bucket list types of experiences to our members.
Who is The Bloom Club for?
Self identifying young women who have had a cancer diagnosis. We are a LGBTQ+ inclusive space.
When?
Our first monthly social will be May 15th in Hamilton, Ontario. Our summer schedule will be released shortly after & we are so excited for what we have in store for you!

Sara
Sara, 32, was diagnosed with invasive ductal carcinoma during the pandemic. She underwent surgery, chemotherapy & radiation alone & missed out on connecting with others during a traumatic time. Sara's hope for The Bloom Club is to connect, support & have fun with others who have received a cancer diagnosis.
