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
Cape Wellness Collaborative's (CWC) mission is to help residents of Cape Cod and the Islands who are facing cancer feel better through integrative therapies, nourishing meals, and emotional support services.
Integrative therapies like massage, acupuncture, yoga, and more can significantly ease the physical and emotional side effects of cancer treatment and recovery. Yet most of these therapies are not covered by insurance, making them inaccessible to many when they’re needed most.
CWC bridges that gap. We connect individuals facing cancer with trusted, local practitioners who provide integrative care—and we cover the cost. Our model keeps care close to home, compassionate, and accessible.
Today, we serve approximately 1,100 people each year. Through our Wellness Eats program, we’ve also provided more than 18,000 handcrafted, nourishing meals to clients and caregivers across our community. We also host monthly support group meetings at our HQ in South Yarmouth.
Our goal is simple and deeply meaningful: to help people feel better—physically, emotionally, and holistically—while navigating cancer.
