HALFTHESTORY

#HalftheStory's mission to empower the next generation’s relationship with social media, through advocacy, education, and providing access to resources for youth. We believe in digital wellbeing. In the digital age we have the freedom to filter out our lives however we choose. Hiding behind our social media identities, we mask the truth behind partial realities we post everyday. #HalftheStory is a global community that encourages individuals to share parts of their lives that exist outside of the standard social media story— Life unfiltered. #HalftheStory celebrates hidden human talents, passions, beliefs and struggles that connect us on a deeper level. By sharing a part of our identity that is not regularly revealed through social media, we restore human connection.

Casting for Recovery

The mission of Casting for Recovery (CfR) is to enhance the quality of life of women with breast cancer through a unique program that combines breast cancer education and peer support with the therapeutic sport of fly fishing. The retreats offer opportunities for women to find inspiration, discover renewed energy for life and experience healing connections with other women and nature. CfR’s retreats are open to breast cancer survivors of all ages, in all stages of treatment and recovery, and are free to participants. On a physical level, the gentle, rhythmic motion of fly casting is similar to exercises often prescribed after surgery or radiation to promote soft tissue stretching. On an emotional level, women are given the opportunity to experience a new activity in a safe environment amongst a supportive group of peers. The retreats provide resources to help address quality of life issues after a breast cancer diagnosis, and a new outlet – fly fishing – as a reprieve from the everyday stresses and challenges of their cancer.
