• 5,200 rides were given to cancer patients to and from their treatment appointments utilizing the Road to Recovery Program volunteer driver program or provided a financial stipend to assist with transportation needs.
• 175 free wigs were given to women. An additional 51 women received gift certificates of $50 each to purchase a wig.
• 310 women participated in our Reach to Recovery program. They each were matched up with a volunteer survivor for support and also received a Reach to Recovery kit. This kit includes a surgical bra and prosthetic, information, comfort pillow, seatbelt cover, and other gifts.
• 3,382 local individuals – persons with a cancer diagnosis, family members, friends – looked to your Nassau County American Cancer Society for information about diagnosis, treatment, support services, financial assistance and other available community resources.
• 625 cancer patients received on-site patient navigation by a trained ACS volunteer/staff member.
• 469 ladies attended a Look Good…Feel Better sessions to address the cosmetic affects of treatment. They each received a free make-up and skin care kit.
• 147 kids attended Camp Adventure, a fun-filled, sleep away camp program for children with cancer and their siblings, ages 6-18. It is a place where kids can just be kids while receiving the medical attention they need from a caring staff. Camp Adventure takes place in August on the beautiful shores of Shelter Island.
• 1,700 Patients and Caregivers stayed at Hope Lodge NYC.
In 2012, we’re hoping to reach even more individuals who need our services. Your support means a great deal, thank you.
