“I can lend my brand to things like this — things that matter, which I think is amazing,” said celebrity stylist Johnny Wright. The Big Chop to Stop Cancer event benefited ZuriWorks, a group for African-American women with cancer.

“There was still a lot of shame associated with the disease.” ZuriWorks seeks to combat those misconceptions and taboos that make cancer an unnecessary silent killer for Black women by putting Black faces at the forefront of survival and overcoming cancer.

  1. ZuriWorks for Women's Health engages women about their health and well being so that they can view cancer not as a disease, they must fear, but rather as one they can handle responsibly.
  2. We educate women to view cancer prevention and screening as part of their beauty regimen.
  3. We equip women with tools and resources so that they can view their beauty is not just an issue of vanity, but it is also an issue of her health and well-being.
  4. We empower women in order to eliminate unnecessary deaths from cancer by:
  • Increasing cancer screening and early detection
  • Reducing delays in treatment
  • Providing community-based and integrated health services to help women in cancer treatment and recovery
