About Us
Finding Inspiration in Every Turn
At the Cancer Support Team, our mission is to make a positive impact in the lives of those impacted by cancer. We offer information, resources, and unlimited community services to assist individuals from all walks of life affected by this disease. Our aim is to provide much more than just a cancer diagnosis. We want to help individuals feel positive, cope with the effects of a diagnosis, connect with others, manage their emotions better, promote good health, confidence, and survivorship.
Throughout 2022, we faced many difficulties, but thanks to faith and generous contributions, our mission has expanded in exciting ways. We have been blessed to have many guest speaker appearances and participate in over twenty community outreach events, including donating care packages, hosting seminars, and expanding our Crowning Star Wig Program. Our 3rd Anniversary Pink Ribbon Fundraiser was a crowning achievement, and we are grateful for the support of our sponsors and donors.
We rely solely on the generosity of individuals, sponsors, and foundations to provide our free services. Every contribution, big or small, helps us to continue offering these services to those who need them most. Your support allows us to maintain our programs and expand our reach, ensuring that we can continue to make a positive impact in our community.
We humbly ask for your support in making our mission possible. Together, we can provide the essential resources and guidance that cancer patients and their families need. Your contribution can make a meaningful difference in the lives of those battling cancer, and we are grateful for your kindness and generosity. Join us in our mission to bring comfort, care, and hope to those impacted by cancer.
