Fun NowFUN Now means putting FUN on calendar of women LIVING with breast cancer. We’re not your ordinary cancer foundation. As a matter of fact, we are we are more of an attitude, than a foundation. We are a FUN only organization that gives family vacations, pampering spa days with sisters, dinners out with best friends, concerts, road trips and other FUN-ONLY gifts and experiences to women and families LIVING with breast cancer. Women with cancer have calendars full of anything but fun: chemo, radiation treatments, doctors’ appointments, tests, and more tests... If that's all you have to look forward to, FUN matters even more. Our generous givers, make it possible for us to do this. We’re a diverse, inclusive, and growing group of friends in ten chapters throughout the U.S. Friends who know how to have fun and, more importantly, get excited about giving FUN to others. What started as Karen's dream to send one family each year on a special vacation once she beat cancer, has grown beyond our wildest expectations. Over the past 13 years we've sent over 850 special ladies on important gifts of FUN. In 2018 & 2019, we gave 175 families memories that will last a lifetime! We hope to do even more in 2020. We rely on the generosity of people to donate a week a year of their vacation homes or timeshares, airline miles or cash. Our LIVING Committee leverages this generosity, connects the dots, and makes some magic happen. #FunNow! #KWFLIVING Contact us: info@karenwellingtonfoundation.org |

Somehow just saying "thank you" doesn't seem like enough. But I hope you know how much your kindness has meant to us. With the medical bills pouring in, we knew there was no chance of taking a vacation this year. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the perfect getaway KWF planned for my husband and me. I loved my morning walks on the beach ... This past year has been nothing short of horrifying ... KWF put FUN back into our lives which had been gone." - Michelle
