In the US, there are currently over 863,830 women living with cancer. One out of every three of these individuals will battle breast cancer. In fact, of the total population of women residing in the US, 12.9% will develop breast cancer in their lifetime. It is this statistic that compels Hensel Phelps to talk about the subject, and to do our part to support a cause that impacts so many of our employees. 

As the number of women wearing a Hensel Phelps hardhat has grown over the years, so has the realization of just how devastating this disease can be. We want our employees to know that we are there for them, to support them through their cancer journey. We also recognize the hardship our employees go through when experiencing cancer indirectly, standing by the side of a wife, a mother, a daughter, a soul mate—any loved one suffering through the unimaginable.
