Jeanine Patten-Coble

Author, Breast Cancer Survivor and Founder of Little Pink Houses of Hope

Jeanine is the author of "Struck by Hope," which chronicles her journey being diagnosed with breast cancer in 2009 and how her own battle inspired the creation of Little Pink Houses of Hope. Her work, providing breast cancer patients and their families with a free week long vacation away from doctor appointments and treatments, has made an amazing impact across the United States. Jeanine was recently recognized as a 2017 CNN Hero. In addition, she was honored by SELF magazine as the 2014 Women Doing Good award winner and by Former President George HW Bush as a Point of Light Award Winner. Her joy comes in knowing the way in which the national non-profit serves women in 48 states and Canada. She is inspired by all of the wonderful people that she has met through her service and is thankful that God showed up in her life in such a big and powerful way to put her on this mission.
