A Season of Change

For the past several months, Look Good Feel Better® has been in close contact with our Alliance partner hospitals and reviewing guidance from healthcare experts.  Based on their recommendations, we have made the difficult call to extend our suspension of in-person Look Good Feel Better workshops through the end of March 2021 due to continued COVID-19 health concerns for our participants, volunteers, and hospital staff partners.

While much of the nation begins to take the first steps to reopen, there is simply too much uncertainty to support a consistent and clear reinstatement of workshops. Many of our Alliance partner hospitals continue to limit access to their facilities, with good reason. 

Rather than dwell on what could have been, we remain focused on the present and the future. We have risen to the occasion to expand access to our Look Good Feel Better Live! Virtual Workshop platform, providing women in treatment with access to the Look Good Feel Better experience from the safety and comfort of home.

Looking forward, we are in close consultation with our healthcare partners and volunteer leaders to reimagine Look Good Feel Better in-person workshops. We must balance our desire to deliver the highest-quality learning and support experience with the need to ensure the safety of the patients we serve and our professional beauty volunteers.

It is our fervent hope that the summer marks a season of change. That the precautions we are taking today create a safer and more secure future for us all. That we will emerge healthy and more confident in our ability to manage the many facets of this pandemic. And that we will be able to return to business as usual – even if it is a bit different.

Until then, we hope you stay safe, healthy, and well. We continue to #STANDSTRONG with our hospital partners operating on the front lines of care, our professional beauty partners whose lives and livelihoods have been impacted by this health and economic crisis, and our patients who are living with cancer in the midst of a pandemic. 

We are here today. And with your continued help, love, and support, we will be here tomorrow.
