Hope is something we’ve all been clinging to extra tightly lately. It brings a glimmer of a brighter future, even if it looks a little different to everyone. For the cancer community, hope means more time with loved ones. It means having safe access to treatment, money to afford their everyday bills, and the chance to embrace fleeting moments.

At the end of every year, we are overwhelmed by the generous support for our Hope for the Holidays program. In 2020, we raised more than $475,000, meaning over 2,723 individuals facing cancer could receive financial support during the holidays and beyond.

This holiday initiative ensures our cancer patients and their families can enjoy the magic of the season that many of us take for granted. Whether it’s providing a warm family dinner or keeping the heat on through the winter, the money contributed by our supporters across the nation gives families a reason to smile a little bigger when they need it most.
