Connie Bramer

Constance (Connie) Bramer, Founder and President of Get Your Rack Back Inc., is a published author, speaker and cancer survivor. In 2008, upon her diagnosis with breast cancer and throughout her treatment, Connie was amazed and touched by the kindness of others. People she had never met sent gifts and cards with inspiring words. Her friends came to the rescue; picking her kids up from school and even assisting them with their homework when Connie was too ill to get out of bed. To help Connie cope with her illness and maintain some semblance of sanity, she blogged about her daily cancer adventures. Maintaining her sense of humor was vital to her recovery and she shares these stories of laughter and triumph in her memoir, “How Connie Got Her Rack Back." Wanting to make more of a direct impact on her local community, Connie established Get Your Rack Back Inc. in March 2015 as a 501c3 nonprofit organization and since then, GYRB has raised over $150,000 to assist local cancer patients.
