The Cancer Foundation Inc

Nutritional assistance program - the cancer foundation's nutritional assistance program helps reduce food insecurity and alleviate grocery expenses for individuals and families affected by cancer, allowing patients to redirect their limited resources toward other critical living needs. The program includes two services: an on-site pantry and a mobile pantry. The on-site pantry provides clients with a verified cancer diagnosis who are in active treatment with groceries tailored to their dietary needs, including shelf-stable goods, frozen food, and pantry staples. In 2024, the on-site pantry served 87 patients with cancer. The mobile pantry distributes pre- packed food boxes through pop-up events hosted in partnership with the food bank. In 2024, the mobile pantry served 386 households, providing food support to 1,892 individuals. Altogether, the nutritional assistance program supported a total of 1,979 individuals and distributed more than 57,000 pounds of food, providing approximately 44,186 meals during the year.
