Casting for Recovery
ENELL is proud to be a National Sponsor of Casting for Recovery (CfR). CfR provides healing outdoor retreats for women with breast cancer, at no cost to the participants. Their retreats offer opportunities for women to find inspiration, discover renewed energy for life, and experience healing connections with other women and nature. The retreats are open to women with breast cancer of all ages, in all stages of treatment and recovery. For over 20 years, women from all walks of life have benefitted from CfR’s inspiring program model.
Learn more about our partnership on the ENELL blog and on the Casting for Recovery website.
"...This diagnosis is always on your mind, but it was really great to put it aside and enjoy the peaceful surroundings and fly fishing. It was an amazing experience!
I am tremendously grateful for your sponsorship and intend to fly fish again in the spring with my brother."

Breast Friends of Oregon
Sharon Henifin and Becky Olson met in 1991 while working together at the same company. In 1993 Sharon was diagnosed with breast cancer. Being first in her circle, her friends, were at a loss as to how to help her. Three years later, Becky was diagnosed with the same. Sharon, having gone through it herself, had an idea about what Becky needed.
Over the next few years, what the two women came to understand was that their experience was not unusual. They discovered that friends, though well intentioned, often don’t know how to help and too often women end up fighting the disease alone and afraid. People would rather say nothing than say the wrong thing. In August of 2000, they decided over lunch to start a non-profit organization. The name, Breast Friends, was chosen and registered with the state of Oregon. A website URL was selected and Breast Friends was born.
Since 2000, Breast Friends has grown at a phenomenal pace. Programs continue to expand to keep up with the need. In 2009, Breast Friends expanded into other women’s cancers. We also began reaching out to women in other parts of the country and now have affiliates in three corners of the United States. Breast Friends is on a 10 year mission to be help women all across the United States.
