Supporting Our Neighbors in East Tennessee

Every day in East Tennessee, our neighbors facing advanced-stage cancer are carrying heavy burdens — emotional, financial, and practical. Many are navigating treatment while managing job loss, housing instability, overwhelming medical bills, transportation challenges, and the deep fear and uncertainty that a diagnosis brings.

Your gift directly supports individuals and families across 24 counties in East Tennessee, providing gentle, practical, and compassionate care tailored to their unique needs. We meet people where they are — at their pace, in their way — to help them breathe a little easier during one of the most difficult times of their lives.

Your support helps cover costs for: 

• Transportation to and from treatment

• Groceries, household supplies, and emergency assistance

• Temporary housing and lodging support for out-of-town appointments

• Co-pay assistance and cancer-related expenses

• Caregiver and family support

• Emotional and non-clinical practical support

Every dollar stays here in East Tennessee, supporting families in our own communities — our coworkers, our friends, our parents, and our neighbors.

Together, we can bring comfort, stability, and hope.

Your generosity ensures that when someone hears the words “You have cancer,” they also know that their community stands beside them.

Thank you for helping us support our neighbors with compassion, dignity, and care.
