Who does EAESSI help?
EAESSI helps uninsured women get free mammograms, first generation students win scholarships, parents file the FAFSA and teens build leadership skills. Every program is free. That is who we help first, and everyone else on this page helps make it possible.
Uninsured women
Free mammograms for women 39 to 64 without insurance. See how we help.
First generation students
Scholarships and essay help for students first in their family to go to college. See how we help.
Parents and families
Free FAFSA help from a college funding specialist. See how we help.
Teens and young leaders
Mentoring, service projects and a free summer program. See how we help.
Give back
Some people need help. Others want to give it.
Two groups power much of what we do.
Virginia's free screening program serves roughly 6,000 to 7,000 uninsured women a year, and funding limits how many more it can reach, according to Citizen Portal. Gifts from local people help close that gap.
Survivors and advocates give in honor of someone they love. Community donors and alumni invest in scholarships and screenings close to home.
Partner with us
Bring your people. We bring the program.
Groups that reach many families at once help us reach further. This is the other half of who we help.
Who can partner with EAESSI?
