Cancer Patient Support
Your donations provide patients of the Calaway•Young Cancer Center an opportunity to receive complimentary services and resources including acupuncture, massage, support groups, emergency assistance and more. This would not be possible without your support.
Help Valley View Cancer Patients
In 2023, more than $134,000 were raised to provide support for patients of the Calaway•Young Cancer Center:
- 377 nights of lodging made available for cancer patients in need to ensure that accommodation needs aren’t an obstacle to receiving treatment
- 600 grocery cards made available to cancer patients in need so that they don’t have to choose between basic necessities like food and their care
- 600 gas cards distributed to cancer patients in need to ease the burden of transportation during their treatment
- More than 1,100 hours of massage and acupuncture services made available to cancer patients to alleviate some of the most challenging symptoms of the disease
““…My journey through treatments for cancer and its side effects have been a challenge. The entire department at the Calaway • Young Cancer Center has been wonderful. The additional treatments of massage and acupuncture to help with all my side effects from the drugs has really helped me through this struggle to attack my breast cancer…I was honored to help support [integrated therapies for cancer patients]… so these services can help future patients battling with cancer, as well as adding ways that patients can navigate through all the side effects of this terrible disease.” Patient of Calaway•Young Center at Valley View
