QuestionsStraight answers.

FCK Cancer is a volunteer-supported fundraising foundation, based in Oliver, BC, that raises money and awareness for people going through cancer treatment. It was started by breast cancer survivor Linda Corscadden, and every dollar raised goes to the Care & Comforts program at the BC Cancer Foundation, supporting children and families receiving treatment.

All money raised goes to the Care & Comforts program at the BC Cancer Foundation. It supports children and families receiving treatment, and pays for wigs, blankets, infusion pumps, chemo chairs, transportation for patients, supplies for children such as colouring books and crayons, and counselling for patients and their families. Each year Linda is given a list of items to choose from.

No, FCK Cancer funds do not go towards research. The money goes to practical care and comfort for patients and families through the BC Cancer Foundation.

FCK Cancer has raised $100,271.13 to date for the Care & Comforts program. Photos of the cheque presentations, going back to 2010, are in the gallery.

Linda Corscadden started FCK Cancer after her own breast cancer diagnosis. She was diagnosed with Stage 3 breast cancer on June 3, 2008, and finished chemotherapy on December 16, 2008. A friend’s words, “Journey on, my friend,” became a poem and then a song, and Linda realised she wanted to be the person she had needed when she first heard her diagnosis.
