💛 August is Appendix Cancer Awareness Month

Appendix cancer is a rare form of cancer that often develops without obvious symptoms, making awareness and early diagnosis especially important.

This month, we honor those who have faced an appendix cancer diagnosis, celebrate survivors, remember those we’ve lost, and recognize the families and caregivers who walk alongside them.

At Cancer Assistance of Williams County, we are committed to supporting local individuals and families affected by all types of cancer through financial assistance, transportation support, and compassionate care.

Together, we can raise awareness, offer hope, and remind those facing cancer that they are not alone.

🚴 Volunteers Needed for Bike to the Bridge! 🚴

Cancer Assistance of Williams County is looking for a few volunteers to help with our 25th Annual Bike to the Bridge on Saturday, August 1, 2026.

One of our most important volunteer opportunities is serving as a Crossing Guard. Volunteers help ensure the safety of our cyclists by stopping traffic at one of three designated intersections as riders pass through.

We will provide a high-visibility safety vest, handheld STOP sign, and instructions before the event.

Crossing Guard Requirements:

Must be 18 years of age or older.
Must be able to safely and confidently stop traffic to allow cyclists to cross the intersection.
Must remain at the assigned location until the final rider has safely passed.

The event begins at 8:30 a.m., and assignments are typically completed in less than three hours, depending on the location.

If you'd like to help support local cancer patients while making our event safe and successful, we'd love to have you join us!

🎗️ July is Sarcoma Awareness Month 🎗️

This July, we recognize Sarcoma Awareness Month and stand with those affected by this rare group of cancers.

Sarcomas develop in the body’s connective tissues, including bones, muscles, fat, blood vessels, nerves, tendons, and cartilage. Because they are uncommon and can affect people of all ages, early recognition and specialized care are especially important.

If you or someone you know notices a lump that continues to grow, unexplained swelling, or persistent pain that doesn’t improve, don’t ignore it. While these symptoms are often caused by conditions other than cancer, it’s important to have them evaluated by a healthcare provider.

At Cancer Assistance of Williams County, we know that every cancer journey is unique. We are committed to helping local cancer patients by providing financial assistance for transportation, medications, nutritional supplements, and other cancer-related needs so they can focus on what matters most—healing.

This month, help us spread awareness by sharing this post, learning more about sarcoma, and keeping those affected in your thoughts.

💚 Together, we can build awareness, offer hope, and support our neighbors facing cancer.
