Cancer is hard, but it doesn’t have to be lonely.
CanCare envisions a world where no one faces cancer alone. We provide hope and healing to the cancer community by ensuring anyone facing cancer can have a survivor by their side.

Whether you are in Texas or any of the other 49 states, emotional support is available over the phone, via text, email and in person – one time or on an ongoing basis.
Who We Are
One on One Cancer Support Community
Founded by Anne Shaw Turnage, a survivor of metastatic colon cancer, CanCare has grown into a network of trained volunteers including survivors and caregivers of survivors who provide emotional support and cancer-related resources. Survivors of more than 60 different types of cancer are the heartbeat of the organization, providing hope, friendship and hospital visitations for those facing cancer.
