A Fresh Chapter

Thank you so much to Lilly & our donor community for giving us the ability to continue our Elevate experience in 2025. This year, 21 Elevate Fellows collaborated virtually for 6 months to support Mizizi’s expansion. We look forward to sharing more details about this program soon!

Next year, our goal is to host 10 Mizizi workshops & reach at least 1,000 people in sub-Sarahan Africa through Mizizi. Thanks to the generosity of our donor community, 4 Mizizi workshops are already funded for 2026. Your gift could help us bring a 5th: afreshchapter.donorsupport.c…

For as little as $25/month, you can help someone impacted by cancer feel understood, supported, and less alone. Our monthly donors show up all year long for people navigating the emotional weight of cancer. Become a monthly donor and change lives: afreshchapter.com/?form=dona…

We’re just $350 away from funding a 3rd Mizizi workshop in 2026. Every gift helps bring emotional healing, skills, and community to people facing cancer in Kenya—and soon, South Africa. Give today and help us reach 100 people facing cancer: afreshchapter.donorsupport.c…

Thanks to our incredible donors & partners, AFC programs reached 1,227 lives around the world from March through September. From leadership training to virtual & on-site workshops, your support helped sustain our programs & empower people to connect, grow, & heal—thank you!

Are you busy on November 20th? Clear your schedule from 6:00-8:00 PM EST/3:00-5:00 PM PST for our next Storytelling for Impact workshop! This free 2-hour session is designed for cancer patients, survivors, and caregivers: afreshchapter.corsizio.com/e…

In honor of #EmotionalIntelligenceAwarenessMonth, we’re spotlighting curiosity—a tool that helps us pause, reflect, and explore the emotions beneath our reactions. Take a moment each day to check in with yourself and stay open to what you’re feeling.

There’s something special about bringing our community together. While our team was in IN for a week of AFC events, we had the joy of connecting with our amazing local alumni for an evening of laughter, great food, & connection. TY to David & Mary for opening your home & hearts!

Sept. 1st is #worldletterwritingday — the perfect reason to pause, put pen to paper, & connect with someone in a meaningful way. Whether it’s a fellow AFC community member or someone you haven’t spoken to in a while, a handwritten note can leave a lasting impression.

Two truths can exist at once. At AFC, we call this Living in Contradiction—a tool from our Ignite Experience to help navigate grief without ignoring it. Hope and heartache can coexist. Learn more: afreshchapter.com/2020/04/16…
