Most people relate cancer to a hospital, surgery, chemo or radiation, but what most people do not realize is that cancer disrupts the very fabric of everyday life. For example, a father who is the primary breadwinner in a home is diagnosed and treated for cancer, finds himself unable to provide for this family. A mother of three children finds it nearly impossible to take her ill child for treatment while trying to juggle schedules with school and other activities for her other children.

You can be assured that the contributions you provide will be there to help anyone in need.
