Cancer Assistance Program

I cannot say enough about the can assistance program. They are amazing. So helpful. They can help you with a drive to an appointment, equipment or walkers and such. Masectomy items and wigs. They are so welcoming and kind. Thank you for everything.

During my cancer journey, CAP has been indispensable. They provided transportation to my numerous appointments, all by kind, caring and uplifting drivers. These drivers all assisted in far more ways than they are aware. I live on the far border of the Hamilton boundary and during these long rides, my anxiety was greatly reduced by the conversation with each and every driver. Calling CAP to arrange a ride was always handled with patience and kindness by Sandy and her crew. I eventually gathered up the strength and courage to go in a a bra fitting and prosthesis and found the dearest little lady doing the fitting, to be supportive and encouraging. I was so anxiety ridden about the whole situation, but she was so sweet and kind, and set my mind at ease. The food from Zarky's was a huge help, particularly right after my surgery. The personal care items and meal suppliments were most definitely appreciated. I don't know how I could ever thank the numerous people whose hard work and compassion helped myself and thousands of other cancer patients, through their terrifying and life altering experience with cancer. My journey is not completely over, but they got me through the worst of it and I thank God they were there!

I can not say enough about the cancer assistance program! How quickly they came to my dad's aid when he needed them. They immediately helped with transportation when I can not do it. They found him a walker and cane the same day I called and are simply an amazing organization!
They are volunteer based, so if you have the time, give them a call and offer some of your time.
