This Giving Tuesday, Be the Reason a Cancer Patient Never Fights Alone

Giving Tuesday is Tuesday, December 3, and it’s your chance to make a real, life-changing difference for families facing cancer. At Culinary Care, we believe no cancer patient should ever have to fight their battle alone—or on an empty stomach. Every meal we provide is so much more than just food—it’s hope, strength, and a reminder that an incredible community is right there with them, every step of the way.

This Giving Tuesday, you can help make sure that families fighting cancer receive the support they need. By joining The Line, our monthly giving program, you’ll be part of something powerful. When you give monthly, you’re ensuring that nourishing meals and personalized care are always available to cancer patients and their loved ones—all year long. How amazing is that?!

Here’s how your monthly gift will make a meaningful, lasting impact:

You Will Nourish Community

When battling cancer, having a strong sense of community can make all the difference. In fact, having a strong support system can actually reduce the risk of mortality by up to 25% for cancer patients (JMIR Cancer). That’s a huge reason why it’s so important for people with cancer to feel connected and cared for. But unfortunately, the cancer treatment process can feel incredibly isolating for many patients.

That’s where this incredible community comes in! At Culinary Care, we don’t just deliver meals—we create connections. We remind patients they are never alone. Every time we deliver a lunch, we’re sending a message that says: "You matter, and your community is here for you."

When you join The Line, your monthly gift will help us deliver restaurant-prepared meals to cancer patients, ensuring they feel the warmth and care of their community. Your generosity lifts their spirits and shows them that they are never forgotten. That sense of connection can be just as nourishing as the food itself!

You Will Nourish Strength

Cancer treatments like chemotherapy can be absolutely exhausting, and they come with some really tough side effects like nausea and loss of appetite. In fact, about 20% of cancer-related deaths are due to malnutrition (National Institutes of Health). When patients are already battling the physical and emotional toll of cancer, having access to nutritious meals can make a world of difference in helping them stay strong.

That’s why we partner with local restaurants to provide high-quality lunches—and we deliver them straight to patients during their treatment. These meals aren’t just food—they’re fuel! They help patients manage the side effects of treatment, keep their strength up, and feel better overall.

When you join The Line, your monthly donation will ensure that these meals are always there for the families who need them most. You’ll be helping patients eat during some of their most difficult days, giving them the strength they need to keep fighting.

Simply put: YOU will be the reason someone eats during chemo TODAY!

You Will Nourish Hope

Fighting cancer isn’t just about one treatment or one meal—it’s about ongoing, unwavering support. Some families go through treatments for months or even years, and through it all, having hope can be one of the biggest challenges.

We believe even the smallest acts of kindness can lift a family’s spirits. That’s why we don’t just stop after the first meal. At Culinary Care, we stay with our families for as long as they need us. And, we love to provide little pockets of sunshine like hand-written cards, regular check-in calls and texts, and Chemo Care Kits. We’re there to remind families that we care.

“Culinary Care made sure I didn’t feel forgotten on my birthday! They brought me a gift bag with chips, candy, and even some handmade birthday cards! It was incredible—it made my whole day.” ~ Terrell, Culinary Care patient

When you join The Line, you’ll be part of a community of generous, caring donors who make sure no patient or family feels left behind. Your support helps us offer these special, personalized touches that keep hope alive during even the hardest days of treatment.
