You Are Not Meant to Face Cancer Alone
Cancer is hard, but it doesn’t have to be lonely. We are here for you.
Our community of more than 500 trained volunteers want to connect with those touched by cancer. By joining our community as either someone going through cancer treatment or caring for a loved one going through cancer, we are here to help you, walk along side you, and offer understanding and comfort as you navigate life changes that come with a cancer diagnosis. If you need a compassionate friend to listen and offer encouragement, CanCare is the place for you. No matter where you are the country, you can connect with your designated volunteer by phone, text, email, or 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.
