Give the Gift of HOPE.

 

As we approach the end of the year, we invite you to join our “Community of Hope” in making a meaningful difference for lung cancer survivors. Your generous donation will support vital programs and research that extend lives and inspire hope for future generations. Together, we can create a strong network of support and resilience in the journey toward better outcomes for those affected by lung cancer.

Thank you for being part of this important mission!  

     

LCI’s community of hope includes everyone involved in advancing our mission, including our staff, Board members, volunteers , donors, business sponsors, health care providers, and of course, lung cancer survivors and their loved ones! The video stories below demonstrate the impact that our community has on those affected by lung cancer, and we are so grateful for all your support that is making this possible.

Justin’s Story

 

LCI hosts an annual Survivor Wellness Retreat that helps foster personal connections among survivors and equip them with tools to prioritize their own self care through their cancer journey. Here, survivors share their comments and thoughts about a truly memorable 2024 retreat!

“A year into my lung cancer diagnosis I found a flyer at the cancer center for an LCI event that led me to the Survivors Retreat. For me, it was just what I needed. I didn’t know anyone who had survived lung cancer. Meeting a community of survivors gave me the hope and strength I needed to continue my journey. Today I celebrate five years of survivorship largely due to the love and support I found through LCI and the Survivors Retreat!” —Teri 

“The healing atmosphere created by the facilitators and fellow survivors, empowered me to push an important resetbutton in my personal cancer journey. I left the retreat with not only wonderful new friends, but also a renewed strengthand peace.”  —Caroline

Kindred spirits, open hearts, compassionate souls, giving personalities, and terrific senses of humor allowed us to enjoy the gifts that often come when one is thrust into the Cancer Club. LCI could not have done any more to make us all feel Happy, Healthy and Whole, and provide some important tools to continue feeling blessed as we headed back to our daily lives. I am eternally grateful.  —Sandy

  Through the storm of lung cancer, Lung Cancer Initiative has been a lighthouse, guiding me with unwavering support and hope. Together, we’ve turned every challenge into a victory, and I stand here stronger, ready to embrace the dawn of each new day. I’ve come so far, and through my resilience I hope to inspire others in the LCI community and beyond.” ♥  Thank you, Sonia
