No woman should have to find her way alone.

Isoke’s Circle began after I lost my sister, Jefrina, to breast cancer in her late 30s. Her journey made me think deeply about all the needs that exist beyond medical treatment: financial support, community, dignity, and simply knowing someone sees you.

I could not change what happened to my sister, but I could decide what I would do with the love and grief she left behind. That became Isoke’s Circle.

Isoke’s Circle was born from founder Aisha DeBerry’s love for her sister, Jefrina, who lost her life to breast cancer in her late 30s.

Jefrina was a wife, a mother, a working professional, and a woman who still found a way to give to others while fighting for her own life. Her legacy now lives in a commitment to make sure another woman feels seen, supported, and less alone.

“We take what we have lived, learned, and carried, and use it to help another sister move forward.”
