Help us care for and encourage people fighting cancer to let them know – “You Are Not Alone” (YANA). --- ## With Your Contributions We Have Been Able to Help Over 10,000 Cancer Patients TO DATE!! ## HOSPITALS/CANCER TREATMENT CENTERS A majority of cancer patients receive chemotherapy and radiation therapy in hospitals and cancer treatment centers around the world.
