You can always count on our Angels to be working hard to benefit local cancer patients. For November, we are running a Thanksgiving dinner delivery service. Our Angels will provide Thanksgiving dinners to patients who can't afford a meal or are unable to cook. Keep checking in with us to learn the other events our Angels are working on.
To find out more about upcoming programs, please contact our Angel volunteer coordinator, Erin Jarboe.
The Angels Cancer Care Program is a dedicated group of volunteers whose mission is to ease the burden of cancer for Wyoming cancer patients.
Many of these volunteers are cancer survivors or caregivers themselves. There are currently Angels in Casper and in Lander, but they have also sent care packages and helped provide assistance to patients all over Wyoming.
Each Angel has special skills to offer. Some volunteers make meals for patients so they don't have to worry about cooking during treatment days. Some volunteers help with housework, picking up prescriptions, or even gardening. Some volunteers even sit with patients during chemo or provide mentorship and emotional support.
The Angels put together treat bags during holidays for patients with homemade goodies, items to combat treatment side effects, and or fun trinkets just to brighten their days.
This year Thrive Causemetics donated eyeliner, eyebrow liner, eyeshadow, blush, and false eyelashes and glue!
We are thrilled to have this partnership with @thrivecausemetics
Thrive is committed to supporting our mission to ease the burden of cancer on Wyoming residents.
Thrive brings the power of beauty to our women, giving them strength and confidence as they fight cancer.
This wonderful group works hard in Casper to make sure all patients are taken care of. They not only provide for patient needs and provide mentorship, but they help organize and volunteer at all events to make sure we have plenty of funds to assist patients across Wyoming with their financial needs.
Our brand new breast boutique was set up using a grant from the Wyoming Breast Cancer Initiative this year! We have prostheses and bras in all common sizes and our trained fitters can help patients choose the right size so they don't have to order without knowing.
Many patients need assistance ordering their prostheses through insurance even with a prescription, and our fitters are able to help navigate those orders.
We do have some inventory in stock so we are also able to assist patients who do not have insurance or are unable to get a prescription.
