Tear down barriers to cancer treatment. | Donate now »
| |  |  |  |  |  |  | |  | Dear Tushar, Where you live could keep you from getting the cancer treatment you need. It seems unbelievable, but for many cancer patients, the cost of traveling to a treatment center is simply out of reach. Hotels, gas, plane tickets—it all adds up. That's why the American Cancer Society provides free or reduced-cost lodging near treatment centers, gives patients free rides to cancer-related appointments, and connects patients to local resources. A lot of people will need our help next year. We've set a goal for 15,000 donors to step up and give by December 31 so that the last thing on a cancer patient's mind is how they'll afford getting to treatment. Can we count on you to be there? Be one of the 15,000 people who will help tear down barriers to cancer treatment with a gift of $10 or more before December 31. Fighting cancer is hard work. And absolutely no one should have to do it alone. That's why our goal is to be there for every cancer patient who needs us. And it's why, with generous gifts from supporters like you, we've been able to invest in comprehensive support services such as: | | • | 32 Hope Lodge® locations, many located near major cancer treatment centers, where patients and caregivers can stay completely free of charge when they have to travel for treatment. | | | • | Hotel Partner Program that makes free or extremely reduced-cost lodging available to patients and families when a Hope Lodge is not available. | | | • | More than 10,000 Road To Recovery volunteer drivers ready to take patients around the corner or all the way across town because like us, they know that where you live shouldn't determine whether you can get the best care. | | | • | Our cancer information hotline, manned by trained specialists 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, means that no question is too small and no time too inconvenient because having accurate, helpful information can save lives. | The most amazing part of all these programs? They put us face to face with the incredibly brave men, women, and children fighting cancer every single day. The hope and strength that you lend them when you give to American Cancer Society is something that's hard to put into words. Because when you're fighting cancer, a stranger's act of generosity can remind you that you and your family aren't alone. Make a generous, tax-deductible gift of $10 or more before midnight on December 31, and ensure cancer treatment is never out of reach for patients and their families. Together, we'll continue to tear down barriers to fighting cancer. Sincerely, Your American Cancer Society | |  |  |  |  |  | |  | | |
