You've Got a Friend - Cancer Support Network

A cancer diagnosis can make a once-familiar world suddenly seem like unknown territory. Friend for Life Cancer Support Network is here to help you navigate your path and gain a sense of direction. Friend for Life is a team of over 200 cancer survivors/volunteers – men and women who provide one-on-one emotional support to anyone experiencing a diagnosis of cancer and to their loved ones. We know what it’s like to experience cancer, firsthand. We are ready to talk and much more importantly, to listen.

If you or someone you know is diagnosed with cancer of any type, Friend for Life can match you with a volunteer who has experienced a similar diagnosis and course of treatment. Being able to talk with a cancer survivor, someone who’s “been there,” provides comfort and hope. Our volunteers are living proof that cancer is increasingly treatable and survivable.

Our support is also extended to family and friends, who are also deeply affected and are often at a loss as to what to say or do for their loved one. Always, our support is caring, confidential, and cost-free.

You may call us (502) 893-0643, e-mail us csnffl@iglou.com, or visit our website www.friendforlifecancersupport.com. For those outside the Metro Louisville calling area, our toll-free number is 1-866-FRIEND-4.
