About The Ellen Hermanson Foundation
Over the course of 27 years, The Ellen Hermanson Foundation has changed the medical landscape of the East End of Long Island, where breast cancer diagnosis and mortality rates are among the highest in New York state. With a deep commitment to the community, the Foundation gives back by funding state-of-the-art medical equipment and breast cancer screenings at The Ellen Hermanson Breast Center at Stony Brook Southampton Hospital and locations in Hampton Bays and East Hampton, where over 12,000 screenings were performed in 2019. Proceeds also benefit Ellen’s Well, a free psycho-social services program that provides support groups other healing opportunities for breast cancer survivors. No one is turned away from the EllenHermanson Breast Center for lack of insurance or inability to pay.

The Ellen Hermanson Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization committed to ensure access to state-of-the art breast health care and to empower people affected by cancer.
