Helping cancer survivors help the newly diagnosed and their families
Welcome to my fund-raising page for CanCare. I am walking and running (mostly walking) the Houston Marathon on 18 January 2009. Just as I did six years earlier, I am covering the distance on behalf of CanCare, a charity deserving of your consideration. A marathon is 26.2 miles long, and my goal this time is to raise $10 per mile. Thank you for whatever you can contribute!
Thank you for supporting my efforts to raise awareness and support for CanCare, Inc. CanCare is an interfaith cancer support network with the mission to improve the quality of life for cancer survivors and their families. CanCare provides one-on-one emotional support to cancer patients and their family members from a trained volunteer who has survived a similar cancer experience and can offer Hope for the future, courage to face the road ahead and compassion that comes from a shared experience.

Can Care volunteers identify with the realities of the cancer experience. The unique relationships that are formed allow the patient to talk openly, to share concerns and to express their fears without feeling like they are hurting or overburdening their loved ones. CanCare also recognizes that cancer is a family disease. Every person in the family is affected when a family member has cancer. CanCare helps family members to cope with cancer and to become part of the healing team.

Thank you so much for donating to CanCare, Inc., and enabling them to improve the quality of life for cancer patients and their families.
