Connect Thru Cancer is a non-profit organization providing various free cancer services and resources to individuals and families living with a cancer diagnosis.

The goal is to give respite to the patient in treatment while supporting their unique way.

During her own personal battle with breast cancer, Cathy became increasingly aware of a missing piece of the healthcare system: in-home services for children affected by a cancer diagnosis. The added physical and emotional stress of treatment was something she was not prepared for, and she struggled with how she saw it affecting her children.

In 2007, Cathy established the non-profit Cuddle My Kids — now Connect Thru Cancer — to provide in-home, no-cost cancer support programs that offer enrichment and creative play to children with a parent or caregiver in cancer treatment. Their main goal is to help increase the quality of life for cancer patients and their families during cancer treatment.
