CanCare’s Annual Cancer Survivor’s Day Luncheon- Update
Due to COVID-19, CanCare has decided to cancel our 30th Anniversary Cancer Survivors Day Luncheon scheduled for April 23, 2020. As you can imagine, this is not an easy decision, but we know it is the right thing to do our part to protect the community and prevent the further spread of the Coronavirus. We appreciate the amazing leadership of our luncheon chairs, Donna & Norman Lewis and were thrilled to honor Shelaghmichael Brown for her dedicated and amazing support to CanCare. We look forward to a time in the future where we can gather and recognize them for their commitment.

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.
