Lodging During Treatment
For cancer patients, getting the right treatment sometimes requires traveling away from home. Lodging expenses can present a significant financial barrier to receiving lifesaving treatment, and financial barriers are known to contribute to disparities in cancer outcomes. We help remove that financial barrier through our Hope Lodge?? program, lodging grants to local healthcare system partners, and a partnership with Extended Stay America.
Navigation Support
If you or someone you love has been diagnosed with cancer, deciding what’s next can be overwhelming. 大象tv CARES? (Community Access to Resources, Education, and Support) is a new patient and caregiver support program that connects people with quality curated information and one-on-one support.
Rides to Treatment
If transportation to treatment is a concern, we may be able to help.? In some communities, our Road To Recovery volunteer drivers provide rides to patients who have no way to get to their cancer treatment.?We also provide transportation grants to local healthcare systems partners so they can provide transportation assistance to their patients.
Connecting Cancer Survivors
The Cancer Survivors Network provides a safe online connection where cancer patients and caregivers can find others with similar experiences. You can participate on discussion boards, join a chat room, and build your own support network.
Breast Cancer Support
If you have breast cancer, you may want to connect with someone who knows what you’re feeling – someone who has “been there.” Through our Reach To Recovery website and app, you can match with a trained volunteer who is a breast cancer survivor.??
Hair Loss and Post-surgical Products
Looking and feeling like yourself during and after cancer treatment is important to you. And it’s important to us. At EverYou?, you’ll find a collection of quality wigs, headwear, and post-surgical?products including bras and breast forms.
