What is the Tyanna Foundation?
In 1990 Tyanna Barre O’Brien lost her battle with breast cancer, leaving behind five daughters. In honor of their mother, these women created the Tyanna Foundation, in order to help the many people affected by breast cancer. The Tyanna Foundation is a 100% volunteer organization, and 90% of all funds raised in each state stay in that state to support local breast cancer efforts. The remaining 10% stays in the Foundation and will one day be used for things like endowments, scholarships and research. The Tyanna Foundation’s flagship event is Breastfest, and all proceeds collected from the event are donated to the Hoffberger Breast Center. So, what can we do together? Help to raise money to fight this deadly disease.
