August News - Partnering with Thrivent & Children's Hospital

Bringing comfort to childhood cancer patients

Over the summer, Thrivent reached out, asking if they could partner with us to help bring comfort to cancer patients at Children's Health hospital of Plano. We loved their offer of assistance and welcomed their support. Together we coordinated a plan with Children's to procure, pack and deliver needed care items as well as fun toys and prizes to bring the kids some cheer - all part of Children's summer campaign "Bring the Magic in July", an annual gift-in-kind donation drive.

We would like to thank Thrivent for partnering with us to bring comfort to cancer patients at Children's Health Hospital of Plano and we hope to be able to do more together in the future.

Thrivent offers financial services in the north DFW area if you would like to find out more about this community sponsoring organization.

If you would like to partner with us on a corporate giving or community sponsorship program, we'd be happy to talk about upcoming efforts and where we have opportunities to work together for better.

Gift with Donation!

Creatures Against Cancer has added a gift with donation feature to our website. Donate or sponsor to receive an original CAC gift accessory or CAC apparel. We have keyrings, mugs, tote bags, shirts, tanks and even a pullover hoodie!

You can still choose no gift to maximize your donation and of course you can always purchase these items directly from our store. All proceeds help bring comfort to cancer patients and survivors.

August Update

Over the summer CAC applied for a grant seeking funding to bring The Lounge to life. If you or anyone you know can recommend a grant program that might be a good fit, we're happy to hear from you.

Our plan for the future is The Lounge, which will be a walk-in location where cancer patients can come to enjoy fresh made bakery goods as well as a cup of coffee or tea or just get away from home for an hour.

Sponsor, Donate, Volunteer

We are actively looking for funding and help in building The Lounge.

If you know anyone in the commercial real estate and construction industry or are looking for an amazing project to sponsor we would love to hear from you.
