About COLA
The Celebration of Life Annual Non-Profit Organization is a committed entity dedicated to empowering the lives of women who have faced or are currently dealing with breast cancer.
​
The main community initiative involves establishing A Place Called Love, a haven that offers a beautiful home for homeless women undergoing breast cancer treatments. Here, they will be cared for, nurtured, educated, and prepared to reintegrate into society with self-reliance, sufficiency, and the ability to live a quality lifestyle.
​
In collaboration with STYLETAINMENT, we organize various annual fundraisers to support this initiative. Among them is a black-tie GALA where we honor and celebrate breast cancer survivors.
