Core Compassion Project® is a 501(c)(3) non-profit that was founded in 2012 in North Carolina by Jill Hinson. Core Compassion Project provides services to men and women breast cancer patients and survivors through its scholarship programs. Through the generosity of Core Compassion Project’s donors we are able to offer The Pilates Program, which provides ten one on one Pilates sessions with a qualified and approved instructor to help recipients strengthen and heal in mind, body, and spirit. Donations also support The Lymphedema Program which provides medical compression sleeves for those who have been diagnosed with, or are at risk for, lymphedema as well as the Bra Program which provides specialized fitness bras for those who have experienced difficulties following surgery for breast cancer. We continue to expand our programs to other areas through our Core Compassion Project Affiliate Program.
Jill Hinson, NCPT, is Executive Director and founder of Core Compassion Project®. She is a fully certified STOTT PILATES® instructor and is proud of her work as a Cancer Exercise Specialist. Jill’s passion for helping fight the side effects of cancer through Pilates was the driving force in establishing Core Compassion Project®, and the development of the Jill Hinson Method for Breast Cancer.
