Cancer Foundation for New Mexico

This foundation understands that a cancer diagnosis affects your whole life, not just your health.  They focus on the “logistics of living,” like a drive to an appointment or where the next bag of groceries is coming from. They make sure that money trouble never stands in the way of someone getting their treatment.  

What they offer: They provide weekly “together” groups over Zoom so caregivers can talk and find strength in a community that understands. They also offer a grief support group, available both in person and online, for those who have lost a loved one and need help navigating that journey.
