Dear Friends,
Welcome to S.A.V.E.D 4 Life Cancer Corporation (S4LCC) Online Cancer ReSource Station. My prayers go out to all those in need of our services. I am a Recurring Cervical Cancer survivor while pregnant twice. I know what it feels like to be without cancer resources, information or support during a cancer journey. Chemotherapy and radiation was apart of my Cancer treatment plan. I know how painful it can be to not be able to provide for my family, pay my bills or do everyday activities of daily living. Cancer steals everything with no regret! Prayerfully, if we have access to the resources we need when we need it we may be able to get through the hard times with assistance. We created this website by Keeping in mind the barriers to Cancer care such as financial assistance, lack of insurance, communication and information, medical system, fear, distrust and emotional barriers. Barriers to Cancer care will keep us from focusing on our health and well being. We are also opening a S4LCC Cancer ReSource Station in all five boroughs of New York. So far we have a Cancer Station in Harlem, Bronx and Queens. This website is meant to help all those in need of Cancer resource including Newly diagnosis Cancer patients, survivors, their families and caregivers. With the help of community partners, faith based organizations, family and friends we are united to make the difference one community at a time. God bless you and yours with good health, happiness and safety.
