The Cancer Resource Center is looking for volunteers!

For many people facing cancer, simple acts of kindness can ease feelings of fear, isolation, and uncertainty. Our volunteers play an important role in creating a warm and supportive environment where people feel cared for and not alone.

Thank you to Brookdale Ithaca and the wonderful residents who came together to support our comfort bag initiative!

In honor of Tonya Thompson, who passed away from cancer, their thoughtful donation included blankets, socks, lotion, chap stick, mint tea, peppermint oil, and medicine dispensers. It was especially meaningful to welcome Tonya’s father and Brookdale residents to CRC as they delivered these generous gifts in person.

Your kindness and compassion truly make a difference! Thank you for helping us honor Tonya’s memory in such a beautiful way.

We're grateful for our volunteers everyday! In honor of Volunteer Week, we want to highlight a story very dear to us.

Ryan began volunteering as a freshman in Spring 2023 when he met Jean at the Cayuga Cancer Center's East Campus. As a former Cornell Biological Engineering professor and a Biomedical Engineering student, the two bonded over their shared interests and love for science.

But Ryan and Jean's friendship didn't stop there! He continued to visit Jean throughout her treatments, even getting lunch outside of the clinic some days. Last fall, Jean wrote Ryan a letter of recommendation that got him admitted to the University of Pennsylvania's Cancer Biology PhD program.

"Jean is one of the kindest, most interesting people I know," says Ryan. "Meeting her is one of the best experiences I’ve had."

To Ryan, and to all of our volunteers, THANK YOU! Your kindness and dedication truly make a difference in the lives of our community members.

Health isn't just about diet and exercise - it's also about preventative care and holistic well-being!

This World Health Day, we’re reminded that small, everyday choices can make a big difference in reducing cancer risk. From staying active to avoiding to***co and keeping up with regular screenings, prevention starts with daily habits.
