Gilda's Club Twin Cities

The Gilda's Club program isn't just a nice to have - it's an essential resource for everyone facing cancer.

Don't just take our word for it! Hear from Gilda's Club member, Kevin, who is living with cancer.

"After six months of treatment for an aggressive and rare cancer (stage 4), I found Gilda’s Club Twin Cities. Gilda’s Club programs, like my weekly Support Group, Coffee Talk, and Improv, have given me something to look forward to each day...

Gilda’s Club is where people 'get and accept' your cancer journey, whatever direction it is heading, no matter where you are in the process...Please, consider giving to the max this Give to the Max Day. Events like this are important opportunities to raise awareness of the need for financial support for Gilda’s diverse online and in-person programs, all of which are offered free of charge to people like me so that no one needs to go through the cancer journey alone. " - Kevin.
