She Broke the Taboo of Talking About Breasts in Her Community

Ashma Khanani-Moosa is a registered nurse and two-time cancer survivor.

After completing treatment for her second bout, she made it her mission to advocate for women's breast health care in her community. Despite much resistance, she received approval to have The Rose bring a mobile mammography coach to her mosque.

Today, Ashma continues to empower women by having candid conversations through support groups and she serves on The Rose's board of directors.
