This fund supports the quality of life of young adult cancer patients under the age of 30, who are undergoing treatment at Grand River Regional Cancer Centre.
This fund was established in 2008 by the Family and Friends of the late Naomi Mather, and honours Naomi's indomitable spirit. Naomi passed away on July 21, 2003 at the age of 20 after her battle with Ewing's Sarcoma.
Gifts to this fund have supported patient expenses like:
- Monthly cell phone bills
- Transportation to an educational program on cancer, physiotherapy or medical program
- Spa treatments or a visit to a hair salon
- Sports and concert tickets
- Mental health support programs
This fund helps young cancer patients to be able to afford day-to-day expenses, without having to worry about it during their cancer treatments.
Thank you for your support.
