CanCare’s Annual Cancer Survivor’s Day Luncheon- Update
- CanCare has set up a new phone support line and email support system for any cancer patient or caregiver who needs immediate emotional support. Calls and emails will be answered by cancer survivors who are trained CanCare support volunteers.
- Since our volunteer work in the hospital and treatment centers has been suspended, we are encouraging our hospital contacts, nurse navigators, social workers and oncology nurses to refer patients and caregivers using our healthcare referral form that is on our website so that we can continue supporting their institutions and the patients they serve.
- We continue to provide one on one matching services, and our staff is working to match people as quickly as possible. This part of our program is very well suited for our world today.

Candle of Hope Cards
$10 per card
Our Candle Lighting Ceremony is the highlight of our luncheon as candles are lit in honor of cancer survivors and caregivers or in memory of those who have courageously faced cancer and are no longer with us. While we are not able to host the luncheon this year due to COVID-19, now more than ever, we would like to remind our cancer community that they are on our minds. For each $10 tribute donation, CanCare will mail a Candle of Hope acknowledgement card to those being honored or to the appropriate relative or friend. All honorees will also be listed on our luncheon website page.
Thank you for your incredible support.
