Here you’ll find information and support for young people and families affected by cancer. There’s also advice and resources to help you with things like mental health, nutrition, exercise, staying creative and keeping busy – especially during these difficult times. Cancer can throw young people’s lives into chaos. You can make sure support is there for them, throughout their cancer treatment and beyond. Every day, seven young people aged 13-24 hear the words “you have cancer”. By getting involved in our campaigns, donating your time or money, taking on a charity challenge or supporting us in any way you can, you can help us be there for every one of them.

What People Say
“We really, really appreciate what the foundation did to help us pay a mortgage payment. You just don’t realize how much that has helped us. It’s helped my brother to have faith in organizations like y’all that do help cancer patients.“
Ed Berry
Cervical Cancer Patient
“After I got sick, The Cancer Foundation helped me a whole lot by paying some bills for me. If it hadn’t been for their help, I don’t know what I would’ve done. I definitely appreciate everything they have done for me and am so thankful to everyone involved.“
David Quinn
Lung Cancer Patient
“I had moved from where I was staying to my own apartment, and The Cancer Foundation helped pay my rent. I really needed it at the time, and it was very helpful. It made the move so much easier, since I was going through chemo during the whole process.“
