Programs and results
What we aim to solve
Our programs
What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
Giving Hope
Cancer patients that are in active treatment for cancer of all types may apply for a direct giving grant.
We know that battling cancer can be tough, not only emotionally but also financially. Expenses like grocery bills or childcare can add up just as much as hospital bills. Our grant dollars can be used to hire a cleaning service for your home, purchasing a fuel card for your trips to the hospital, or anything else you may need. With our help, you can channel all your energy toward fighting cancer rather than worrying about daily expenses.

- We employ non-traditional ways of gathering feedback on programs and trainings, which may include interviews, roundtables, and external reviews with/by community stakeholders.
- We have community representation at the board level, either on the board itself or through a community advisory board.
- We help senior leadership understand how to be inclusive leaders with learning approaches that emphasize reflection, iteration, and adaptability.
- We engage everyone, from the board to staff levels of the organization, in race equity work and ensure that individuals understand their roles in creating culture such that one’s race identity has no influence on how they fare within the organization.
