About Janus
Please join me in my efforts to support Cancer Patient Care!
I have volunteered and raised funds for Cancer Patient Care for the last 14 years after losing both my fiancee Loreen and my father to cancer. I started the Loreen Miller Bike Ride shortly after losing Loreen and it has become one of the biggest fund raisers for Cancer Patient Care and one of the longest running Cancer-related bike rides in the nation! This year my wife Melissa and I have taken a HUGE leap of faith and I am competing in the Coeur d'Alene Ironman Triathlon and RAISING AS MUCH MONEY AS POSSIBLE FOR CANCER PATIENT CARE through this endeavour.
Cancer Patient Care was founded by volunteers in 1958. In the beginning, Cancer Patient Care was an agency that supported local cancer research. Recognizing the vast needs of low income cancer patients our mission changed. The focus turned to providing a wide array of services for access to health care and financial assistance for low income cancer patients and their families.
Our client base consists of people diagnosed with cancer and their families that fall below federal poverty guidelines. Cancer does not discriminate. The diagnosis can come at any time regardless of age, race, religion, gender, background, lifestyle or income. Most of our clients had meaningful employment at the time they were diagnosed with cancer. As a result of the disease many have lost their jobs, benefits and depleted financial resources they once had.
Our programs are unique and benefit an under-served group. We believe cancer patients should not be denied access to care, nor their families access to necessities, such as heat, lights and groceries, due to lack of funds. We assist by finding aid and supplying resources that otherwise may be unavailable. We also provide Social Support for the families and patients in need of a kind ear or shoulder to lean on.
Cancer Patient Care Programs include the following:
Financial help for emergency needs like utilities and groceries (paid directly to the provider.)
Transportation to cancer treatments.
Home health care equipment (distributed from an in-house loan closet)
Prostheses, Wigs, Scarves and other needed support.
Non-prescription medical supplies, such as adult diapers and bed pads.
Emotional support
Liquid Food supplements - essential for weight maintenance.
Go to the following web page to read the truly inspirational story of one of our clients! http://www.cancerpatientcare.org/client_stories.php
Cancer Patient Care is the only organization in the community that provides support services for low-income families with cancer who are terminal and non terminal. All our services are provided at no-cost to the client. It is common for cancer patients to incur medical debt in excess of $100,000 per year. One prescription alone may cost $12,900 for five months.
Please be a part of our legacy of HOPE by contributing genersously!
$1000 can provide grocery vouchers for ten families with children for one month!
$500 can provide gas vouchers for transportation to cancer treatments for five patients for one month!
$300 can provide prescription assistance for one patient for one month!
$100 can keep the power from being shut off for one family!
$50 can provide nutritional supplement for one patient for one month!
$15 can provide one week of nutritional supplement for one patient!
Your prayers and encouragement are greatly appreciated, and YOUR FINANCIAL SUPPORT OF ANY AMOUNT will make a fantastic difference in the lives of cancer patients and their families in the Inland Northwest!
