The Dr. Jeanne Shepherd Fund was established in 2001 to provide financial assistance to cancer patients.
Dr. Jeanne Shepherd served as a dedicated, highly respected Oncology Counselor at the Center for Cancer Care, now Alliance Cancer Care. During this time, she was diagnosed with cancer and lived the remaining years of her life encouraging and assisting others with cancer.
The purpose of the Dr. Jeanne Shepherd Fund is to provide cancer patients financial assistance with housing needs, food, transportation, and other necessary everyday living expenses.
If you are interested in helping cancer patients with their financial assistance, all gifts are greatly appreciated. Your gift may be given in honor or memory of a loved one, and contributions are tax-deductible. If you would like to contribute, please click on the link below. Once you are on the donation page, you will see the section that asks you “To what hospital unit or fund would you like your gift to be designated?” Select “‘Jeanne Shepherd Fund” and then in the “other box below write in Jeanne Shepherd Fund”.
In addition to monetary donations, you can also assist cancer patients by shopping for products in Alliance Cancer Care’s Amazon storefront using the link below. Alliance Cancer Care earns commissions from all qualifying purchases from their Amazon store and 100% of all commissions earned are then donated by Alliance Cancer Care to the Dr. Jeanne Shepherd Fund. The products featured in the store have been selected by Alliance Cancer Care radiation oncologists as products that may help cancer patients before, during, or after their treatments. You can shop and support the Dr. Jeanne Shepherd Fund in the process, at no extra cost to you.
