American Cancer Society is known for their research & funding of now 40 Nobel Prize winners. But Relay benefits much more than the "big" items. A few examples of how Relay dollars will be used:
$1000 = covers 10 day stay at Hope Lodge in Indy, always free of charge for patients and families going through treatments.
$500 = provides visits to 5 patients matched to trained breast cancer survivors in the Reach to Recovery program for questions and one on one support.
$250 = 83 hours of toll free access on1.800.ACS.2345 where cancer information specialists speak with 1.2 million callers each year.
Camp Catch-A-Rainbow, the resource libraries at both Parkview & Lutheran Oncology Centers, Road to Recovery volunteer driver program in Allen County...the list goes on!
