CancerCare, in partnership with the Community Oncology Alliance, raised almost $665,000 in direct financial assistance for people with cancer who have been impacted by the recent hurricanes.
The majority of these funds were distributed to people with cancer in Puerto Rico and those who have since relocated to the continental United States.
In Puerto Rico, direct financial assistance provided through CancerCare helped more than 800 individuals coping with a cancer diagnosis offset the costs of paying for food, clothing, fuel and bills.
