Restoring hope to families affected by Stage IV cancer
Mission
Cancer Angels is a non-profit that helps all types of Stage IV cancer patients facing financial hardship by providing assistance to help meet their basic needs such as food, shelter and childcare. The organization distributes funds to landlords, mortgage holders and utility companies directly and offers gift cards for groceries, gas, and clothing to deliver consistent and direct aid to families.
Why It Matters
Since the Covid-19 pandemic has begun, it has been more difficult for cancer patients to pay for ongoing bills and medical treatment. LEWIS is proud to help support charities like the Cancer Angels of San Diego during this difficult time and beyond.
“My dad was diagnosed with, and passed away from, late-stage cancer in June 2019. As heartbreaking as a cancer diagnosis is on its own, having financial concerns on top of everything else makes the situation even harder. My dad was a San Diego native, so knowing that people in his hometown will directly benefit from this donation is a special way to honor his memory.”
