The Hawthorne Cancer Foundation jobs and careers

About The Hawthorne Cancer Foundation

Our mission is three-fold. We provide financial, emotional, and material support to cancer patients and their families when they need it most. These services would not be possible without partnerships with the cancer community, professional healthcare, and social workers. The Hawthorne Cancer Resource Center is the heart of our community, providing emotional and educational support. Events include various fun activities and weekly support groups that are hopeful and positive. Since its inception in 1965, The Hawthorne Cancer Foundation (formerly The Johns Cancer Foundation) has served hundreds of cancer patients and their families throughout the greater Richmond metropolitan community. We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to assisting individuals waging their battle against cancer. With the combined strength of The Hawthorne Cancer Foundation and The Hawthorne Cancer Resource Center located at Johnston-Willis Campus, we can assist cancer patients through financial, emotional, and material support. Did you know… • 30,000 Virginia residents are diagnosed with cancer each year. • 42% of cancer patients become unemployed during treatment due to the severity of their illness. • 4,000 Richmond area patients diagnosed each year live under the poverty level and struggle to pay everyday living expenses. • 17% of cancer patients living in the Richmond area are uninsured. For many cancer patients and their families, simply making ends meet is often difficult. The Hawthorne Cancer Foundation is here to help.
