Our Mission

Healing Odyssey is a 501©(3) nonprofit corporation whose mission is to empower women cancer survivors to be strong, hopeful and courageous through innovative and active education and support programs.

Our active, experiential-learning, 3-day weekend retreat provides women cancer survivors with a roadmap for recovery. In the serene, healing environment of natural California beauty, away from everyday stress, safe among an unconditionally supportive community of fellow survivors and oncology professionals, the women of Healing Odyssey experience a powerful series of interactive workshops and activities totally focused on healing, recovery and moving forward.

About the Retreat

Why Donate?

We charge a $250 registration fee per participant to attend the retreat. It costs us much more than that, however,  we do not turn anyone away that cannot afford the registration fee.  Your donation will help us continue to reach more women who are in need. We depend on the generous support of donors who are passionate about helping others. We are grateful to have a great group of donors and supporters who graciously help us continue our mission of empowering women cancer survivors to live their best life possible. It is a tax deductible donation as well.
