CANCER. . . a very scary word that sends shivers through everyone.  At best, it’s an illness that can be cut out, radiated or chemo’d into long-term remission.  It always remains in the background after it strikes.  At its worst, it causes much pain and suffering for patients, their families, and their community.   Billions have been spent developing treatments and still it remains a significant blight on humanity.  What can we do?

Enter the Greater Clermont Cancer Foundation! The Greater Clermont Cancer Foundation’s (GCCF) mission is to provide financial assistance, support and comfort to persons fighting cancer that live in South Lake County Florida. GCCF also provides scholarships to immediate family members or the patient themselves who have been impacted by a cancer diagnosis.
