Let’s help more patients get back to the moments that matter most. With your support, we can advance life-saving innovations and care for British Columbians facing cancer — helping them get back to their everyday. Your Donation Changes Everything. 🔗Give today via the link in our bio.

Vancouver Island families are about to have something powerful in their corner. A new cancer centre in Nanaimo is coming in 2028 — bringing life-saving care closer to home. Thanks to the Auxiliary Society for Comox Valley Healthcare, your donation will be matched dollar-for-dollar (up to $100K). That means twice the impact for patients and families when they need it most. Made possible by BC Cancer Foundation donors. Double your impact. Help bring care closer to home.

For her father, she’s helping rewrite the future of a rare cancer. After losing her dad to paraganglioma, Alexia is honouring his legacy with “Lawrence’s Drive for a Cure” @lawrencesdrive4acure — raising funds for critical research at BC Cancer. Funds raised fuel Dr. Brandon Bernard’s work to better detect, monitor and treat this rare cancer that’s often overlooked but urgently needs attention. This is the power of fundraising: More research. Better care. Real hope for families. Support Lawrence’s Drive for a Cure at the link in bio.
