You can be a part of this important support in your community by including Texas Oncology Foundation in your year-end giving. Your gift will directly impact patients and caregivers affected by a cancer diagnosis, and you can designate it to your local community.
Your gift helps provide patients with financial assistance for utilities and rent, transportation to doctor’s appointments, programs for emotional support, and education for the practicalities of a cancer journey and survivorship.
The Foundation’s financial assistance program helps relieve a tremendous area of stress and need for patients facing the challenges of meeting the financial requirements of medical treatment and everyday household expenses.
Support groups provide emotional support for caregivers and those facing loss. A variety of educational resources, including a resource library, on-demand video series, and the dynamic in-person Survive & Thrive Conference.
You can make a difference in the lives of cancer patients and their caregivers. Donate Today!
Local fundraising events create fun and funding throughout the year to help local cancer patients. Celebrate Life 5K events offer not only a traditional 5K but begin with a Survivors Lap for cancer survivors. It is both a heartwarming and uplifting way to kick off the event.
Uncork to Support raises funds through an evening wine education and tasting. The Annual Golf Classic makes Spring even more delightful with an afternoon of golf. All funds raised at a local event stay in the community to support local patients.
