We Provide Vital Funding to Community-Based Organizations Helping Cancer Survivors Live Better and Fuller Lives.
Billions of dollars are spent each year on critically important cancer research, early detection and treatment. Far less, however, is spent on supporting cancer survivors in their daily lives. In addition to the effects of the treatment and the disease itself, cancer survivors and their caregivers frequently face challenges that may endure far beyond diagnosis and treatment. Daily responsibilities from taking care of family and home, paying bills, and transportation to appointments can become overwhelming as so much energy becomes focused on dealing with the immediate impacts of the disease and treatment. We are here to help.
Research has shown that non-medical, social determinants of health can exert a strong influence on outcomes for cancer survivors. Addressing these factors is critical for improving health and care outcomes. Frequently, assistance with transportation, addressing financial hardship, and creating awareness of and access to services that help cancer survivors focus on their health and being well are provided by community-based organizations.
The Cancierge Foundation is here to help. Like so many of you, we too, have had a spouse, mother, father, and other family members and friends impacted by cancer. We have witnessed first hand just how drastically a cancer diagnosis changes people’s lives and we have dedicated ourselves to ensuring that those community-based organizations doing the critical work of providing non-medical support to cancer survivors in need can reach as many people as possible.
Our mission is simple: We are dedicated to improving the lives of those affected by cancer by supporting community-based organizations and care providers. We fund initiatives that address critical non-medical needs, helping to enhance care outcomes and bring dignity, comfort, and hope to cancer patients and their families.
