Care Packages For Cancer Patients
We provide Comfort Care Packages to cancer patients to keep them warm during treatment and to let them know "You Are Not Alone".
We feel privileged to support cancer patients in their fight against this terrible disease.
YANA is 100% volunteer run and relies on donations to fulfill our mission. A donation of any amount will help us send more care packages to cancer patients.

Hospitals and Cancer Treatment Centers
A majority of cancer patients receive chemotherapy and radiation therapy in hospitals and cancer treatment centers around the world.
Most of our oncology centers distribute our care packages to new patients when they come in for orientation before treatment.
Our care packages, that include a no-sew fleece blanket and beanie, provide warmth during treatment.

Here are the quick and easy steps in making blankets
Note: YANA Cancer Comfort provides the fleece material and they come pre-cut
- Step 1: Place one solid piece and one patterned piece of material flat, one on top of the other
- Step 2: Find the corners and tie them first, so that the blanket lines up.
- Step 3: Continue tying all fringe edges. Tie one solid and one pattern fringe together two times each until you’ve completed the whole blanket.
