Finding Support and Making a Difference in Your Own Backyard
You're invited to a special community mixer to learn about The Cancer Support Center's vital services and discover how you can get involved and support our mission. With cancer diagnoses on the rise—the American Cancer Society estimates over 2 million new cancer cases in 2025, and 1 in 3 people will develop cancer in their lifetime—it's more crucial than ever to support our neighbors through their cancer journeys.
​
For over 30 years, the Cancer Support Center has been a steadfast pillar in both the Homewood and Mokena communities, offering a haven for individuals and families facing cancer. We're here for anyone impacted by cancer, at any stage, and for every age, from children to seniors. We empower those on a cancer journey by offering a wide array of FREE wellness programs, including fitness, nutrition, and body image classes, along with educational resources and counseling.
​
Learn how you can contribute to its strength. Discover the many ways to support our mission through special events and sponsorship opportunities, plus volunteer opportunities.
​
You'll also have the opportunity to learn about preventative health measures. Be sure to check out our hospital affiliates and sign up for a skin screening for melanoma. Did you know that the American Cancer Society estimates approximately 100,640 new cases of melanoma will be diagnosed in the United States in 2024? Early detection is key!
