Fighting Chance

Fighting Chance We are a free cancer counseling center with a regional focus of the East End of Long Island

Professional counseling – typically provided by an oncology social worker – is a very beneficial supplement to the purely medical treatment that a cancer patient receives. This type of counseling is the core business of Fighting Chance, and is provided free-of-charge. The counseling helps relieve a cancer patient’s sense of hyper-anxiety and it increases their sense of "empowerment" so that they

feel they have a real chance – a fighting chance – of beating the disease. Urban-based hospitals often have psychosocial counselors on staff – although only available to that hospital’s patients. But Fighting Chance's office is "free standing and independent" -- so that we can and do assist patients from all six hospitals in and around Long Island’s East End.

A NOTE FROM OUR FOUNDER

To Friends of Fighting Chance New & Old,

Happy Thanksgiving!

As we give thanks this holiday for friends and family, I want to take a moment to thank the friends and family of Fighting Chance who make our mission possible. This year we have provided FREE counseling, navigation, transportation and information to hundreds of cancer patients and their families as they face the daunting journey a cancer diagnosis. Without individual and partner donations our work would not be possible.

Please remember Fighting Chance as we celebrate this holiday season.

Thank you, Duncan Darrow

To Friends of Fighting Chance New & Old,

Thank you for your generous support of our free cancer counseling and resource center based on the East End of Long Island. In 2023 we have been able to introduce new programs such as;

Survive & Thrive – a series of small group interactions designed to help survivors find a comforting community as they re-establish a routine post-cancer treatment. These include Equine Therapeutics, Yoga, Spirituality Meetings and more.

Everything we offer to our Patients is FREE, thanks to our donors. Even if you have already donated this year, I hope you will consider making an end of year gift so we can continue to support cancer patients & their caregivers in our East End community.

Thank you, Duncan Darrow
