Donate

What can you do to help? Please consider a gift to Angel Foundation so we can provide emergency financial assistance, education and support to local adults with cancer and their families. Once we help lessen a family’s financial burden, our kid-friendly activities teach coping skills, encourage honest conversations and focus on the entire family.

Since our founding in 2001,  Angel has distributed more than $10 million in critical financial aid and provided more than 35,000 services to local families through our programs.

Special Match Opportunity: Between now and December 31, the Richard M. Schulze Family Foundation is matching donations made to our Meals in Motion program. The Richard M. Schulze Family Foundation will match any gift from a new donor, or the amount by which donors who have previously given to Angel Foundation increase their largest previous gift, up to $10,000. To make sure your gift is matched, click the drop down menu in the Designation section of the donation form and select Meals in Motion.

Chemolicious: Getting to Your Best Self
In the Mascotti Family, you don’t ever give up. When you get knocked down (whether by your brothers or by breast cancer), you get up back up and keep moving. Chemolicious: Getting to Your Best Self is a guide for breast cancer patients, their families and friends on how to manage the non-medical journey through the chemotherapy treatments. This perspective is lined with humorous anecdotes and candor from my own journey. It is author Teri Mascotti’s desire to help others feel “Chemolicious” during this hellacious test. Every cancer is different, every outcome is different; but wanting to feel and be your best is a human condition that should never stop.
