Support Local Cancer Patients
Your gift makes a difference for nearly 800 cancer patients and families every year by helping provide critical wraparound resources and support.
Here are just a few examples of how, when you donate to CancerLINC, you help stabilize cancer patients and families in Richmond and provide peace of mind during vulnerable, difficult, and uncertain times:
- Individualized case management for each patient’s unique needs and circumstances to ensure that their time and energy is focused on their health.
- Access to a large network of assistance and referrals for patient’s basic needs: food, housing, and utilities.
- Long-term planning for accumulating medical debt and development of strategies for financial stability.
- Education and counsel about workplace rights from an employment attorney.
- Legal referrals to address issues such as insurance denials, SSI/SSDI, eviction, guardianship, bankruptcy, medicare/medicaid, and debtor’s rights.
- Notarized life planning documents such as wills, powers of attorney, and advanced medical directives.
