Cancer Support Community's 'Cocktails For A Cause'

Cocktails for a Cause is an exclusive event where we will showcase our mission as we share cocktails and hors d'oeuvres together. Our keynote speaker is Bob Hammer, Have a Ball Foundation and Cancer Survivor.

This event allows our members an opportunity to say 'Thank You' to a caregiver for making a difference during their cancer journey. During the evening, our guests will be given an opportunity to make a donation to help underwrite CSC programs and services.

Cancer Support Community provides comprehensive integrative care - including counseling, support groups, nutrition, exercise and patient education programs - for people with cancer and their families or caregivers. Our services enable cancer patients to partner with their medical team to manage their treatment and recovery most effectively, increase their chances for survival, reduce their chances of recurrence, and provide for the highest possible quality of life.

We now serve 2,000 cancer patients and their families each year. All of our programs and services are evidence-based to positively impact cancer treatment outcomes and/or immune system functioning, and they are all delivered by professionals who are licensed or certified in their area of expertise.
