The Mission of Cancer Services of Gaston County, Inc. is to serve the community by actively promoting healthy lifestyles and to provide support and services needed by people living with cancer.

Cancer Services, formerly Gaston County Cancer Society, is a local United Way Agency established in 1977 and is not affiliated with any other national organization.

All contributions are used to provide programs and services for Gaston County residents, except for a Research Grant to a North Carolina medical school.

Cancer Services is governed by a volunteer Board of Directors, consisting of Gaston County citizens, including business leaders, physicians, nurses, cancer survivors, and individuals having an interest in cancer.

Cancer Services is a small agency with four staff members. Therefore, volunteers play a crucial role in providing services and programs.

Cancer Services must have your support. We are partially funded by United Way, Susan G. Komen For The Cure Foundation, Health & Wellness Trust Fund, The Carrie E. and Lena V. Glenn Foundation, Community Foundation of Gaston County, and YOU! We need your contributions in order to continue providing services for Gaston County. Please call us to find out ways that you can help! (704)864-1271.
