Supportline is now CancerBuddy


Our Supportline program has been facilitating peer support connections for cancer patients since 2001. To offer these peer support services more broadly, we are transitioning from Supportline to a new free smartphone application known as CancerBuddy. This new App is for patients, survivors, and caregivers. We are encouraging those seeking peer support to download the CancerBuddy app.

CancerBuddy is made possible
by the generous support of:

American Securities Foundation
Bristol Myers Squibb  
Coleman Family Ventures
Dolan Family F oundation
Nektar Therapeutics
Novartis
Pfizer Inc.
Wolpow Family

Thanks to these supporters, we’ve raised more
than 75%of the funds needed to cover CancerBuddy’s
development and implementation costs. But we
still have a funding gap to bridge, and welcome
any support you can provide.
