Kelli’s Light & Legacy

Kelli understood how lucky she was to have our family and the resources to face the financial burden that accompanies a cancer diagnosis.

One of her last wishes was for our family to raise money for The Cancer Foundation, a local non-profit based right here in Athens. Their mission is to alleviate the financial burden of cancer for patients throughout Northeast Georgia. They do this by providing direct financial support for the non-medical factors that influence care, including transportation, housing, and utilities. In addition to financial assistance, TCF provides nutritional support to cancer patients and their families.

Kelli’s Light & Legacy was established as a way to honor Kelli’s wishes to raise funds for the left behind, the lost, and the often-forgotten. Please consider making a tax-deductible in her honor and in support of local cancer patients.

    I didn't know how I was going to afford my mortgage. I was so worried about late fees. I called the company and TCF had taken care of it for me! I was unable to sleep before I learned about The Cancer Foundation, and now my stress level has decreased!

    I had moved from where I was staying to my own apartment, and The Cancer Foundation helped pay my rent. I really needed it at the time and it was so helpful. It made moving during chemo treatment much easier. Thank you!

    The Cancer Foundation did a lot to help me. They guided me and provided me financial support through gas cards, which helped me get to and from treatment. I live in Hart County and drive to Athens for my care. TCF is SUCH a blessing to me and my family.
