Mission Statement:
Chemo Comfort’s concern is making life easier and more comfortable for the cancer patient undergoing chemotherapy. Chemo Comfort provides resources that enable cancer patients to take positive, comforting measures for themselves, thereby empowering patients at a time when so much feels out of their control.
What we do:
Born from my desire to share knowledge acquired while undergoing treatment for breast cancer, Chemo Comfort provides kits to cancer patients with products that I found useful while undergoing chemotherapy. These products help patients manage nausea, mouth sores and hair loss, among other things. There is also literature enclosed with hints from me of ways to cope with various aspects of this experience.
Approximately 80% of Chemo Comfort kits distributed annually are donated through partner cancer organizations. We also make subsidized kits available to cancer patients nationwide for a minimal donation and there is a gift kit program, which helps sustain our other programs.
