CancerCare is a national nonprofit organization that provides free professional
support services to anyone affected by cancer: people with cancer, caregivers,
children, loved ones, and the bereaved. CancerCare programs—including
counseling, education, financial assistance, and practical help—are provided by
trained oncology social workers and are completely free of charge. Founded in
1944, CancerCare now provides individual help to more than 91,000 people each
year, and an additional 1.6 million people visit our websites, www.cancercare.org
and www.lungcancer.org, to gain information and resources.
