While each individual\u2019s experience can be vastly different, all patients share many of the same challenges and fears after receiving their diagnosis. Often overlooked along a cancer patient\u2019s journey, cancer charities play an important role behind the scenes, supporting patients and their families as they face those challenges.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Many Canadian charities are helping cancer patients and their loved ones with care, treatment, and other services including hospice services and end of life support. Some of these organizations also fund critical research to spread awareness and educate the public about prevention and symptoms to catch cancer before it\u2019s too late.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With so many charities working to help Canadians facing cancer head-on, the following are just a few charities working to address cancer in different ways.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Cancer Charities Spreading Awareness and Educating the Public<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Many Canadian charities play a crucial role in raising awareness and educating the public on cancer prevention and awareness. They aim to decrease cancer rates by providing information on risk factors and improving treatment outcomes by helping Canadians detect symptoms earlier.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.canadahelps.org\/en\/charities\/melanoma-network-of-canada\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong> Melanoma Network of Canada<\/strong><\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is one such charity, focused on the prevention of melanoma &#8211; <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">a potentially life-threatening skin cancer, <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">through advocacy and education. They provide information on the disease and assist in efforts to secure funding for melanoma research to advance prevention efforts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Raising awareness and providing education is also central to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.canadahelps.org\/en\/charities\/lung-cancer-canada\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Lung Cancer Canada<\/strong><\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2019s<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> mission. Lung Cancer Canada is the only charity in Canada with a focus on raising awareness and providing information to people affected by lung cancer. Formed by caregivers and healthcare professionals in response to the lack of information, treatment options, and support, they have become an authority on the disease in Canada.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Charities Supporting Cancer Patients and Their Loved Ones<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cancer treatment is a physically, mentally, emotionally, and financially taxing experience for each and every patient. It is also challenging for family members, partners, and other loved ones to witness someone they love so dearly go through a tough time. A number of charities exist to support patients and their families through this experience.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.canadahelps.org\/en\/charities\/young-adult-cancer-canada\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Young Adult Cancer Canada<\/strong><\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> connects young adults aged 15-39 who are on their cancer journey. They aim to support young adults as they move with, through, and beyond cancer by providing a connection with peers to eliminate isolation and create inspiration for their patients.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Knowing that cancer also takes a toll on families, <\/span><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.canadahelps.org\/en\/charities\/opacc-ontario-parents-advocating-for-children-with-cancer\/\">Ontario Parents Advocating for Children with Cancer<\/a><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, supports parents and families of children with cancer throughout their cancer journey. They coordinate peer support and support groups across Ontario \u2013 both in hospitals and in local communities.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Many small, local cancer charities also make a difference in their communities by offering a welcoming environment for patients to share their stories. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.canadahelps.org\/en\/charities\/gildas-club-simcoe-muskoka\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Gilda&#8217;s Club Simcoe Muskoka<\/strong><\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> offers programs for emotional support where men, women, and children can find the information and support they need to live with the emotional stress of a cancer diagnosis, treatment, and bereavement.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Cancer Charities Supporting Research<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cancer research plays an important part in beating cancer. Many cancer organizations are leading research initiatives to identify more risk factors, early warning signs and symptoms, new treatments, and a possible cure for cancer.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Many charities exist to fund more specialized research such as the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.canadahelps.org\/en\/charities\/canadian-skin-cancer-foundation\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Canadian Skin Cancer Foundation<\/strong><\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> while others, like <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.canadahelps.org\/en\/charities\/cancer-research-society\/\"><strong>Canadian Research Society<\/strong><\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.canadahelps.org\/en\/charities\/the-princess-margaret-hospital-foundation\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Princess Margaret Cancer Foundation<\/strong><\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, are committed to researching all types of cancer.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Cancer Charities Providing Palliative Care<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While the majority of those diagnosed with cancer survive, many do not. Many charities work to ensure terminal patients and their families are given the best palliative care possible. These charities are dedicated to making patients more comfortable, getting them the necessary treatments, and providing a network of support around them.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.canadahelps.org\/en\/charities\/palliative-home-care-society-foundation\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Palliative Home-Care Society Foundation<\/strong><\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> has been providing palliative care for cancer patients since 1980. The foundation has helped more than 50,000 cancer patients and their families by providing end-of-life care in their homes so they can be closer to loved ones and in a more comforting environment.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The <\/span><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.canadahelps.org\/en\/charities\/ian-anderson-house-foundation\/\">Ian Anderson House Foundation<\/a><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is another such charity, offering quality end-of-life palliative care by trained medical professionals, for cancer patients who cannot be given the necessary round-the-clock care in their own homes. The House is designed to create a homelike and safe environment where residents receive round-the-clock care.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Cancer Charities Need Your help<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While Canadians are lucky enough to have most medical care provided for them, charities are filling an important gap.
