HOW OUR ORGANIZATION OPERATES & WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT
OUR MISSION
Cops Against Cancer is a 501(c)3 non-profit tax-exempt charitable
foundation created from generous private and public donations and
these donations are tax deductible.
Mission:
* Providing financial assistance and resources to cancer patients
and families with some of the unexpected expenses associated with
cancer treatments not covered by insurance.
* Providing and promoting cancer awareness and prevention within
our communities through educational retreats and speakers forum.
* Providing cancer patients and families not only during treatment
but also during post treatment by offering professionally certified
WellBeing Coaching services to enhance patients' quality of living.
We will be providing the families one-on-one, support group, or family coaching.
Other organizations concentrate on research; Cops Against Cancer focuses on the acute financial, educational, and emotional needs of individual cancer patients and their families.
CAC is proud that for the past four years, 85 cents of every dollar raised goes towards the client care programs.
Our highest priority is responding and reacting to the emergency needs of cancers families asking for assistance. We are focused on the patient's need for assistance now. We are compassionate and strive to ease the immediate financial, emotional and mental pain of the client and their families. By providing the client with our supportive services, they can focus on the health challenges they are facing and also provide reassurance they can reclaim their life and focus on their quality of living.
Providing a hand up,
not a handout.
