CancerCare® National Gala Moves Online for 2020
Last month, CancerCare made the difficult decision to cancel our national gala to ensure the safety of our supporters, our staff and the public at large. We hosted an online auction and donation opportunity in its place to fund the free, professional support services that are now more necessary than ever.
An Update from CancerCare
CancerCare is closely monitoring the coronavirus (COVID-19) and would like to share some helpful guidelines to follow as we navigate this situation together.
CancerCare Services and Public Health Concerns / Servicios de CancerCare y Preocupaciónes de Salud Pública
To ensure the safety of our clients and staff, all CancerCare services will now be delivered via telephone or electronically due to public health concerns. While our office locations in New York, New Jersey and Long Island are currently closed, telephone services, online services and our thrift shop in Manhattan are operating normally.
