Mission Statement
Cancer Care Club is a non-profit organization established in July 2001 who’s purpose is to ensure that no one will miss a doctor’s appointment or their chemo/radiation treatment or go hungry because of cancer and to help and serve patients and their families fighting cancer or in the recuperation stage of the disease in a way that best centers around their needs. Our main focus is and will continue to be locally in the Buffalo Trace area, however we will also support counties and area’s that request our services/help and national charities with the focus being on national charities that support cancer in some way, shape, or form providing eligibility requirements are met.
Volunteering
Has your life been touched by cancer and/or do you wish that you could help? If so, you can join us the first Monday of every month (unless it falls on a holiday, then it’s the following Monday). Our meetings are held at Cancer Care Club at 353 East Water Street in Flemingsburg, Ky 41041.

We require a pathology report and a statement from your physician outlining your treatment plan. At times, we may request a current progress note from your physician.
