Caring For A Cure

Directions Website Contact the organization

Founded by the oncology nurses of MGH with a mission to improve the journey of patients and families with cancer through research, resources, and awareness

For Patients. For Families. For Research. For a Cure. For Patients - At the core of our mission is our patients. We continuously seek opportunities both small and large to make their journey easier and uplift their spirits. For Families - Families support our patients and are incredibly important to us. Recognizing that this is a journey for patients and those who walk beside them, we aim to support and recognize their integral role. For Research - Research leads to innovations that help our patients recover faster and moves us toward a cure. We are incredibly lucky to be based at Massachusetts General Hospital, surrounded by an incredible research team both here and across the river. For a Cure - We'd love it if we could play even a small part in curing this disease.

Thoughtful Thursday- from the hearts of our CFAC family. Thank you, Erin, for sharing your beautiful and heartfelt story. 💙

And thank you to Naomi, whose kindness, compassion, and thoughtfulness created a moment of joy during an incredibly difficult time.

Sometimes it’s the simplest gestures that leave the most lasting impact. What began with a Guitar Hero game became a cherished memory that will last forever.

These are the moments that remind us why Caring for a Cure exists. It’s about connection, compassion, and finding ways to bring a little comfort and happiness to patients and families when they need it most.

We are so grateful to Erin for sharing this special memory and to Naomi for reminding us of the difference one person can make.

Derek will always hold a special place in our hearts. 💙
