Financial Giving

Giving a gift every month demonstrates your ongoing commitment to support your neighbors impacted by cancer as they find support, education and hope at Cancer Support Community. GEMS members are a valuable partner as they provide steady and reliable source of funding so we can continue to provide our free services and support.

All gifts of every size make a difference.  Together community is stronger than cancer.  (Be sure to select, monthly gift when completing the online donation form.)

Honor and/or memorialize special individuals by giving to Cancer Support Community – Central Indiana’s Memorial/Tribute Fund. This special gift recognizes not only the individual honored, but also assists Cancer Support Community in meeting its mission.

After being diagnosed with a brain tumor at a young age, Emma Stumpf went through 70 weeks of chemotherapy, 6 weeks of radiation, and over a dozen brain surgeries. During that time, she turned to art to help express her feelings. She used yellow paint when she was happy, blue paint when she was sad, and clay when she felt angry. That experience inspired Emma to start this project when she was 7 years old.

We are very excited to share that Emma and her family have recently joined the Cancer Support Community family, allowing us to help Emma achieve her dream of giving art supplies to everyone who’s going through a hard time and needs to express themselves and helping us ensure her legacy lives on forever.
