Tributes and Memorials
Tributes & Memorials provide the opportunity to make a donation “in honor of” or “in memory” of a loved one or friend. A donation to Cancer Assistance of Williams County is a thoughtful way to honor someone whose life has been impacted by cancer. Gifts can be made to recognize milestones in a cancer survivor’s life or to express the sense of loss when someone loses their battle with this disease.
Your donation will bring HOPE home to other families currently battling cancer.
A list of all memorial donations received will be shared with the family, so that they are aware of your thoughtful donation. Cancer Assistance of Williams County is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt nonprofit organization so your donation is applicable for IRS tax credit.
