Since 2020, we have raised funds to help cancer patients increase their access to healthy meals. We are thrilled to announce that, in addition to our continued financial support, we are now offering three free Cancer Support Health & Wellness Classes.

These classes are designed to improve overall health and well-being by providing engaging and informative sessions on healthy cooking, nutritional information, and general wellness. Specifically tailored for individuals diagnosed with cancer and their caregivers, our classes will empower participants with the knowledge and skills to make informed decisions about their diet and lifestyle, ultimately enhancing their health and quality of life.

Additionally, we will address the impact of alcohol and substance abuse on cancer patients and survivors, offering healthy alternatives to support their journey to wellness.
