CANCER WELLNESS FOUNDATION OF CENTRAL ALABAMA
Mission : To provide supportive services , educational services and assistance to cancer patients throughout central Alabama , including those patients who lack the resources necessary to otherwise receive comprehensive healthcare .
Background : Receiving a cancer diagnosis is devastating for anyone , but what if your fear was driven by having to decide between paying for fuel in your vehicle to get to the cancer center or paying your water bill ? What if you had to decide between buying your medications or paying your mortgage ? This was the reality for many patients in our area . So 26 years ago , three oncologists who recognized this need started the Foundation . In 2020 , a nutrition program was added to assist patients who have been identified as at-risk for malnutrition .
