Social Connections

Cancer Support Community at Gilda's Club offers a wide range of social programs aimed at relieving stress and creating happiness, even if just for an hour. If you hope to get your mind off of a diagnosis or escape from the treatment schedule, these programs can be that opportunity. These programs are also meant to build a sense of community and belonging for all our members.

Men's Diner

This program introduces healthy meal options that are sure to please the palate. All the ingredients are supplied for two delicious dinners including the spices. You make the meal at home using our easy-to-follow recipes. One meal is usually plant-based and the other meal may contain chicken or meat.

Community Chefs

Each month a local organization volunteers to make a meal for our members (individuals/families impacted by cancer). The group plans the menu, brings all of the ingredients, and prepares a delicious meal in our state-of-the-art kitchen. It's a great way to see the immediate impact of your volunteer effort as you have a meal with our members.

Bingo

On special occasions we host a family-friendly bingo night for all ages. All registered members are welcome. Registration is through the online portal.

Survivorship Picnic

In recognition of Survivorship Day we host an annual picnic where members and their families are invited to join us for games, art activities, and most importantly sharing a meal together as we celebrate our journey in life.

Coffee Hours

Monthly coffee hours for members to socialize and connect with one another.
