Like many charities, the Tumour Foundation of BC has faced an extraordinary series of financial challenges over the past two years. Despite careful planning and difficult decisions, the financial realities ultimately led us to make the heartbreaking decision to eliminate our Executive Director position.
As of today, the Foundation is operating entirely through its volunteer Board of Directors.
For more than 40 years, the TFBC has grown into a province-wide source of support, education, advocacy, and connection for individuals and families affected by NF. We don't want to lose what we've built together-but we can't preserve it alone.
We need our community now more than ever.
If you've ever considered joining our Board of Directors or volunteering your time, now is the time to step forward.
Our volunteer Board members remain deeply committed to ensuring that individuals and families affected by NF continue to have access to support, education, and connection. Like many of you, our Directors are balancing careers, families, and personal commitments while giving their time because they believe this community matters.
The future of the Tumour Foundation of BC will depend not only on its Board, but on all of us.
As we are transitioning back to being a 100% volunteer-run organization, we are adjusting how we manage our day-to-day operations but our commitment to individuals and families affected by NF remains unchanged. We will continue working to provide support, education, connection, and advocacy for the NF community.
Reach out anytime. We’re here for you.
During this transition, response times may be longer than usual. If you would like to connect with us, please email [email protected]. Please note that our phone line is not currently being monitored.
We deeply appreciate your patience and understanding as our volunteer team takes on these new roles and responsibilities. Thank you for continuing to stand with us and support our work to improve the lives of those affected by NF.
