Lakewood nonprofit provides assistance to cancer patients in need
Recent news reports about a Jefferson County woman faking a cancer diagnosis to solicit donations are a bitter pill to swallow for thousands of Colorado cancer patients that legitimately need financial support and the nonprofit organizations that work every day to fill that need.
A cancer diagnosis and subsequent treatments can create a substantial financial hardship for the survivor and the survivor’s family. While it’s commendable that a community will come together to support a family in need, and the story of the Jefferson County woman proves Coloradans have big hearts, it’s important for cancer patients and the community to know that resources are available for cancer patients experiencing financial difficulty.
