Together We CAN Make a Difference!

CAN Cancer, Community Assistance for Neighbors with Cancer, was founded by your Central Oregon garbage haulers and once again we are asking for your support!

Our communities have helped raise over $170,000 for local cancer patients but more help is needed.

25% of those diagnosed with cancer lose their life savings trying to survive it.

100% of your donations will help local families manage day-to-day non-medical expenses, including fuel, travel and food costs while receiving cancer treatment.

For more information or to donate online, visit cancancer.org

Tax deductible donations are administered through our partnership with St. Charles Foundation.

Together, we CAN make a difference!
