The Ladies of Steel Magnolias

The mission of Steel Magnolias is the same as it has been since our beginning in August, 2001. We are dedicated primarily to providing services and support to breast cancer patients in Calhoun and surrounding counties. That is done, one patient at a time. Secondly, we are dedicated to providing hope to anyone who reaches out to Steel Magnolias. We accomplish that through our website, our newsletter and care packages mailed to newly diagnosed breast cancer patients who are brought to our attention. Our proudest moments have been the passage of HB147 by unanimous vote of the 2009 AL legislature and the success of the Steel Magnolias School Girl Awareness Program.

We sincerely thank everyone whose contributions make our work possible.

Annual Golf Tournament Fundraiser

Held each spring, the Lea Fite Memorial Golf Tournament brings together community members for a day of friendly competition and heartfelt purpose. Proceeds from the event directly support the Steel Magnolias Breast Cancer Support Group, helping provide vital resources, encouragement, and care to individuals and families affected by breast cancer. Join us on the green and make a meaningful impact—one swing at a time.

How We Helped Change History

In February 2009, Steel Magnolias along with Rep. Lea Fite closed a loophole in the breast and cervical cancer act. HB147 Act #2008-320 was passed that helped uninsured breast and cervical cancer patients who qualify financially would be enrolled in the Medicaid Breast and Cervical Cancer Treatment Program.
