Delivering a Consistently Beneficial Experience: Look Good Feel Better Global Survey Data Shows Program Impact Across Cultures and Continents
Findings Released on World Cancer Day Demonstrate Importance of Appearance on Self-Esteem and Confidence for Women in Cancer Treatment Around the World
For more than 30 years, Look Good Feel Better has provided free programs to teach beauty techniques to help people with cancer manage the appearance side effects of cancer treatment. The program has served more than 2 million people globally across its network of 27 global affiliates.
This year’s global survey results underscore the profound impact of the Look Good Feel Better program.
The number of survey respondents who felt very or somewhat confident in their appearance rose from just 50 percent before attending a workshop to 92 percent following workshop participation.
95 percent of respondents appreciated what they learned, and 96 percent found value in the program to improve self-image.
97 percent of respondents around the world indicated they found support through the LGFB experience.
“World Cancer Day reminds us all that cancer knows no boundaries,” said Louanne Roark, executive director, Look Good Feel Better Foundation. “The toll that cancer treatment side-effects exact on self-esteem and confidence is universal as well. In partnership with the entire global beauty industry, countless volunteers and caregivers, we have championed women around the world for 30 years, delivering compassion and community, boosting morale, and restoring confidence.”
