A SCORE Mentors Berks and Schuylkill Cty Case Study
DiepCFoundation, founded by Terri Coutee in Tucson, Arizona, is a nonprofit that helps breast cancer survivors make informed decisions about breast reconstruction after mastectomy. Its challenge was building awareness, credibility, and funding for its educational mission so more survivors could access reliable information and support.
SCORE Mentors Berks and Schuylkill Cty helped by connecting Coutee with mentor Nancy Hessney, who guided her to resources like Guidestar and strategies for improving visibility and fundraising, including Amazon Smile. As a result, DiepCFoundation gained national credibility, expanded donation opportunities, and strengthened its outreach through events and online channels, with SCORE Mentors Berks and Schuylkill Cty continually reinforcing the foundation’s efforts.
