Measuring CancerCare's Impact

Since 1944, CancerCare's commitment to offering help and hope to anyone affected by cancer has remained constant. Thanks to our donors, volunteers, friends and advocates, we continue to make a difference. Because of the generosity of our donors, last year CancerCare continued to help individuals and families impacted by cancer with the full range of our support services.

CancerCare's Annual Spring Gala Is Back and Live in Person

On Tuesday, April 12th, CancerCare will host its first annual Spring Gala live and in person since 2019. Hoping to raise more than $800,000, the event will honor three CancerCare members of the Board of Trustees: Christine Converse Hogan, Marsha Palanci and Susan Smirnoff.

Along with a special musical performance by Tony and Grammy Award Nominee Jeremy Jordan, there will be a live and silent auction which will include special wine and food experiences, trips to Mexico and a suite at Yankee Stadium when they host the Boston Red Sox.

Proceeds from the event will help fund the financial and psychosocial services that CancerCare provides. The need for these services increased more than 35% in the last year. Your support is more valuable than ever. To attend or support the gala and for more information, visit us here.
