Background
Ashley volunteered for the Cancer Support Community teaching virtual and in-person yoga classes and has seen the impact this organization has had on others. After Ralph was diagnosed in November 2022, Ashley knew exactly where the three of them could go for support. Both Ashley and Barbara have utilized their free services since Ralph's passing.
About Cancer Support Community:
The mission of Cancer Support Community South Bay is to uplift and strengthen people impacted by cancer by providing support, fostering compassionate communities, and breaking down barriers to care.
Since 1987, Cancer Support Community South Bay has provided psychosocial and emotional support to over 24,000 cancer patients and their loved ones. Research has shown that this type of support reduces isolation, improves quality of life, and is an important supplement to one’s medical treatment plan. They offer over 200 programs, services, classes, and workshops per month, all completely free of charge. This support is integral to cancer patients in active treatment, those returning to wellness post-treatment and long-term survivors, as well as their family members, caregivers and other loved ones, ages 5 and up. They work to empower participants through education, resources, and community, so that no one faces cancer alone. Contribute
