In a powerful display of community commitment to women's health, a team of more than 20 dedicated Guthrie volunteers scheduled 205 mammogram appointments during the inaugural Lourdes Mammo-thon on Monday, Oct. 6. 

The energetic four-hour phone bank, held in recognition of Breast Cancer Awareness Month this October, resulted in more than 3,000 calls to patients who are due or overdue for their screening mammograms. 

This proactive initiative aims to break down barriers to care and connect women with potentially lifesaving preventive screenings.

The success of the Mammo-thon directly reflects Guthrie's commitment to community health and the powerful impact of volunteerism. 

By reaching out to patients directly, Guthrie is helping ensure more women across the region have access to early detection tools critical in the fight against breast cancer.
