Causes: Cancer

Mission: Cancer Response Team, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to helping children get supportive cancer care. We do so by providing their families with financial assistance for integrative and complementary cancer therapies from time of diagnosis up to six months post treatment.

Target demographics: Supporting families in the USA, who choose to pursue a truly integrative approach to cancer treatment - one that combines the best that conventional medicine and natural medicine have to offer. An evidence based integrative approach to cancer has the potential to reduce side effects and improve effectiveness; ultimately improving both quality of life and prognosis. Unfortunately, some complementary therapies and treatments are not covered by traditional insurance policies.

Geographic areas served: Phoenix, Arizona

Programs: Cancer Response Team benefits children who have been diagnosed with cancer and are in need of financial support associated with their treatment plans, such as (but not limited to): naturopathic visits, supplements, IV-nutrition, oncology massage, child life services, chiropractic care, nutritional counseling and travel expenses.
