My Story
I’m thrilled to be returning as team captain for the 2025 CWC Falmouth Team! Last year, our team raised over $17,000, which directly provided 23 individuals facing cancer on Cape Cod and the Islands with a $750 wellness card—giving them access to integrative therapies with local practitioners, nutritious meals, and vital support.
That’s 23 lives profoundly impacted by your generosity—23 individuals who found relief, strength, and healing during one of life’s most challenging journeys.
CWC served more than 1,000 people in 2024, a year in which we saw a 40% increase in demand for our services. In fact, there has been a 300% increase in clients from just three years ago. We'll continu to help as many Cape and Islands neighbors diagnosed with cancer as possible, but we depend on events like the Falmouth Road Race to help CWC provide our clients with free-of-charge integrative therapies.
This year, we’re aiming even higher! Every dollar raised helps provide comfort and care to those who need it most. Please consider donating or sharing to help us continue this incredible work.

Thank you for your support!
Description
CWC provides free of charge integrative therapies, nutritious meals, and emotional support for people facing cancer on Cape Cod and their caregivers.
Integrative care includes massage, acupuncture, craniosacral therapy, lymphatic drainage, yoga, art therapy and more. All of these modalities provide significant relief from the side effects of cancer and its treatment. Integrative care is not typically covered by insurance, which means many people cannot afford it while undergoing cancer treatment and facing a loss of work.
CWC partners directly with local practitioners who provide these services and we cover the cost.
Our model makes integrative care accessible: the practitioners are in your neighborhood, and the cost is covered. We serve over 600 people living with cancer each year. Our goal is to help people feel better, better tolerate treatment, and recover faster after treatment.
Thank you to all who have donated so far!
