Making A Difference in the Lives of Children & Families
About Us
The California Cancer Crushers began in 2012 as a nonprofit organization whose mission is to make a difference in the lives of children and families affected by cancer in our community. The California Cancer Crushers focuses on raising funds to help with the financial burden that cancer has on families. The money raised by our organization supports a variety of cancer-related causes. More than half of the funds raised each year stays in our local community and is used for; the California Cancer Crushers Scholarship Fund, donations to the Breast and GYN Health Project, and funds are given to local families to help with medical costs associated with cancer treatments. Each member of our organization has a strong passion for supporting our community in the fight against cancer.
What We’ve Done
Even though Wings for a Cure is our main fund-raising event, we have had the pleasure of being able to help others with their cancer-related fundraising events such as; Spa for a Cure which helped bring 3D mammography to Humboldt County, Hops and Cops, Guns and Hoses, St. Jude Radiothon, Relay for Life, and numerous local family fundraisers throughout the year.
