Cancer Support Community Valley/Ventura/Santa Barbara is in the midst of an active summer with ongoing support groups, yoga, guided imagery and other mind/body related classes, and educational programs including the upcoming estate planning workshop.
Our mission is to ensure that all people impacted by cancer are empowered by knowledge, strengthened by action and sustained by community. We work daily to accomplish this mission for individuals and families in our area because a cancer diagnosis does not follow a calendar or take a vacation.
Our services are provided at no cost to participants only through the support of our larger community who see and feel the value this organization provides to families dealing with the uncertainty of cancer. Consider how you can support CSC Valley/Ventura/Santa Barbara and raise awareness for our mission as a donor, volunteer, by attending an event, or inviting a friend to engage with this great Community.
Thank you for your ongoing support!

FACES OF GIVING: MEET NORM MACDONALD AND NANCY SOLOMON, CSC'S JACK & JILL OF ALL TRADES
|
|
Jonas Salk, the inventor of the polio vaccine, once said, “I feel the greatest reward for doing is the opportunity to do more.” This sentiment perfectly describes super volunteers, Norm MacDonald and Nancy Solomon, who are constantly showing us how much MORE they have to give.
This “Jack & Jill of all trades” continually step up and take on the projects that nobody else wants to do. Whether that’s replacing a toilet in the men’s room mere hours before the Survivor’s Day Picnic, running back and forth to the storage unit to set up for events, hauling furniture, or fixing the tiles in the Garden of Hope, Norm and Nancy are definitely the Go-To Volunteers for just about anything the staff needs.
