Ways to Be Part

Whether you are seeking care, offering support, or exploring collaboration — there is a place for you in naræ.

At the center

The heart of naræ

naræ supports immigrant and culturally diverse women navigating breast and gynecologic cancers.

Every part of naræ is built around them.

A thoughtful foundation

Built with care, not haste

This work is shaped slowly, with attention to trust, cultural understanding, and the quality of each connection.

The goal is not to gather widely, but to build something sincere, steady, and lasting. It is meant to grow with integrity, not urgency.

naræ Roles

Who belongs here.

naræ Fellow Connect as a Fellow → →
An immigrant or culturally diverse woman navigating breast or gynecologic cancer, often carrying not only a diagnosis, but also the weight of language, migration, family roles, and the experience of feeling unseen. She comes to naræ to be received fully, as she is. She is at the heart of why naræ exists.
→ Walk Beside Another → naræ Companion
A naræ Fellow who, when she feels ready, may choose to walk beside another woman beginning a similar journey. Companion is not a separate role, but something a naræ Fellow may grow into in her own time. In walking beside another, her own healing may deepen.
naræ Steward Become a Steward → →
A person or organization who helps sustain naræ through service, generosity, partnership, advocacy, or support behind the scenes. Stewards may include other cancer survivors, friends, professionals, volunteers, and partners who believe this work matters and want to help it continue with care.
