Your gift can make an impact for patients and their familes.

$10 – Click here to support lunches ($10 per person) 

At times, patients are in treatment for hours; a little food goes a long way to making them feel better. A full lunch for patients and their caregivers, in addition to nutrition items we provide every day, is a big comfort. 

$25 – Click here to support gift cards

Patients face a wide variety of needs during treatment and a small gift card can really help with food or gas. Some patients travel hours to get to their treatment and this helps alleviate one less worry.

$60 – Click here to support co-pay assistance

The cost of cancer treatments addup, even the co-pays. Many patients are seen multiple times a month or even a week. Assistance to offset the cost of co-pays is greatly needed by many patients.

$100 – Click here to support the therapeutic music program

Upstate Cancer Center “treats” patients to live music in order to create a soothing and comforting environment that is deeply appreciated by patients. A donation of $100 helps pay for the performance of a professional musician in the Cancer Center.

$500 – Click here to support television access during infusion

Each individual infusion area has a personal television with audio jacks for the patient and caregiver. Access to television entertains patients and helps pass the time during treatments.

$1,000 – Click here to support the Paxman scalp cooling program

Studies have shown that hair loss is the most feared side effect of cancer treatments in 75 percent of patients. Consequently, Upstate Cancer Center introduced the Paxman Scalp Cooling Program for hair loss prevention. A generous donation of $1,000  will cover the cost of a patient cooling cap and several cycles of cooling treatments.

$2,500 – Click here to support chemotherapy chairs

Patients would like to be as comfortable as possible during their treatments, which is why fully reclining, zero gravity chairs are provided in the Cancer Center. The chairs need replacing periodically.
