Gilda Radner believed everyone navigating cancer should have access to comprehensive psychosocial cancer support through therapeutic programs delivered by mental health professionals. Because it’s not just about getting through cancer – it’s about living, while living with cancer.

Now more than ever, Gilda’s Toronto needs your support to ensure the individuals and families who are experiencing cancer related stress will not have to face cancer alone. Thank you for being part of the cancer support community.

Gilda’s Toronto played a vital role – the support I got from them was invaluable, helping me with the anxiety that comes with a cancer diagnosis.
Nolan Murphy – How he found support at Gilda’s Toronto
Luckily, through my sister, I was able to connect with Gilda’s Toronto teen support group. I was able to connect with other teens who had been touched by cancer, a group of kids who understood the nuances of having someone close to you with cancer.
