OUR FOUNDER
Brandi Wallace
Brandi Wallace born and raised in Chicago. I am a mother, wife and entrepreneur. In 1995, I lost my mother (Dianne Wallace) from metastatic breast cancer, worst day of my life!
In 2007, my husband and I founded this organization, but I wasn't fully invested at the time. It wasn't calling me until one day it struck me. In 2010, I was hit with those 4 words "You have breast cancer". Estrogen positive cancer in my left breast, I went through every treatment imaginable. After that treatment, I started researching better ways to treat my body to minimize a recurrence. Once I started feeling myself again I reverted back to my original ways.
It was in September 2019, I was told the cancer returned as Stage 4 breast cancer to the bones. After seeing treatment centers that hand out processed foods loaded with sugar and crap I knew it was time to get this organization going. In July 2020, Dianne Wallace Center of Hope NFP was born and focused on women in low income communities with the hopes of helping to rejuvenate health.
