We held our first 3-Class Series of Cancer Support Health and Wellness Classes.
Purpose
Since 2020, we have raised funds to help cancer patients increase their access to healthy meals. We were thrilled to announce that, in addition to our continued financial support, we were able to offer three free Cancer Support Health & Wellness Classes in April 2025.
These classes are designed to improve overall health and well-being by providing engaging and informative sessions on healthy cooking, nutritional information, and general wellness. Specifically tailored for individuals diagnosed with cancer and their caregivers, our classes will empower participants with the knowledge and skills to make informed decisions about their diet and lifestyle, ultimately enhancing their health and quality of life.
Additionally, we will address the impact of alcohol and substance abuse on cancer patients and survivors, offering healthy alternatives to support their journey to wellness.
