What we do...

We provide JUST-a-BREAK from cancer (from a nice night out, to a couple days "get-a-way") at no charge to patients with advanced stage cancer. With the help of generous local businesses, donors, and volunteers, along with the assistance of local hospitals and cancer centers, JUST-a-BREAK (an official IRS non-profit organization) desires to literally provide "JUST-a-BREAK" from the ongoing emotional worries and financial toll of living with cancer.

Why we do this...

As current and past caregivers of loved ones with advanced stage cancer we "get it" and can appreciate how a simple get-a-way can provide a much needed emotional lift. We know the reality of the financial burdens of cancer treatments, and how they can prevent even that simple night out, and we want to help.

How you can help...

We need local businesses and/or donors to help provide overnight accommodations, dinners, event tickets etc. to help us put together JUST-a-BREAK packages for local cancer patients and their caregivers. We also need volunteers to help knock on doors and make contacts and connections with local businesses. We need many to help tell the JUST-a-BREAK story. There are also other ways you can help.
