Corporate Giving

Untitled-14

When a family hears the words “you have cancer,” everything changes. Because of corporate partners like you, no one has to face it alone.

Support from local businesses fuels free social and emotional cancer support programs for thousands of individuals and families across Metro Detroit. Together, we can build a community where hope, connection, and the tools to face a diagnosis with confidence are always within reach.

Ways Your Organization Can Make An Impact

Make a Corporate Gift or Grant: A direct corporate contribution or grant from your foundation or charitable arm helps ensure our programs remain 100% free for anyone impacted by cancer.
Engage Your Employees: Build community inside your company while strengthening our mission! Encourage team members to volunteer, participate in events, or form workplace fundraising teams.
Donate in-kind goods or services: Provide auction items, event supplies, professional services, or mission-critical resources to support our fundraising events and daily operations. You can view our current wish list here.
Attend or Sponsor a Signature Event: Purchase tickets, host a table, or become an event sponsor at one of our annual fundraising events.
