You can attend a monthly gathering with others living with all types of cancer, their family members and friends. Small groups of 8-10 foster the development of friendship, support and encouragement. It's also an opportunity to gain information and learn new skills and techniques on living with cancer. Topics are selected based on member's interests, and may include stress reduction, nutrition, yoga, pain management or other suggested topics.
Tote Bags of Hope
You are often shocked and overwhelmed when you or a family member hears the words, "You have cancer". Our Tote Bags of Hope program has been developed to provide you with emotional support, resources and encouragement as you begin your cancer journey. The Tote Bag of Hope includes a Treatment Organizer notebook that will help you organize information related to your diagnosis, treatment, appointments, test results and follow-up care.
If you have not received a "Tote Bag" please contact us at 814-237-2120 or info@cancersurvive.org and we will provide you with one.
Celebration of Life Baskets
Celebration of Life baskets are distributed to those finishing their cancer treatment at various local treatment centers. The baskets contain items that are customized for a man or a woman per their individual interests and are delivered to the celebrant at their home.
