Hope & Healing Cancer Center Campaign

DONATECAMPAIGN CASE STATEMENTSTORIES

The Healing and Hope Campaign is an opportunity to make a significant gift that impacts the lives of cancer patients in the Coastal Region by supporting the new McLeod Center for Cancer Treatment and Research at Seacoast.  The Cancer Center will offer innovative multi-disciplinary care, improved access to preventive medicine, and superior technology used to enhance the health and well-being of patients in this region. The overall cost is more than $32 million.

The Healing and Hope Campaign’s goal is to raise $2 million to help fund this tremendous Cancer Center, which benefits our coastal region.  Specifically, it is an investment in a new state-of-the-art PET/CT Scanner, a crucial part of the patient’s diagnosis and response to treatment.

Why a Comprehensive Cancer Program?

Cancer is a complicated disease that requires a comprehensive approach for the best management possible. The new Cancer Center located on the McLeod Health Seacoast campus is a place of hope and healing for cancer patients. The highly skilled team of physicians and specialists is there to guide patients through their cancer journey by providing lifesaving screenings, early detection, and treatments using advanced technology all in one location.

Philanthropy is a key element of our campaign. Join us in making an important investment that will not only impact lives today but also for generations to come.

Together, we can reach our $2 Million Goal and offer Healing and Hope for patients and families facing cancer.
