What does a cancer diagnosis mean for an Albertan today?

In addition to dealing with pain, nausea and fatigue, many are worried about their families, finances, jobs and future. For many, significant physical, emotional, and financial challenges persist for years after diagnosis, and for some, the situation seems unrecoverable.

70 Programs

40,000 Visits

14,000 Hours

Wellspring Alberta offers over 70 diverse, evidence informed programs, delivered by over 120 contracted professional program leaders, five to six days a week.

In 2024, people living with a cancer diagnosis, caregivers and children under 18 visited Wellspring programs and services over 40,000 times.

In 2024, 313 volunteers committed more than 14,000 hours in support of Wellspring.

“Joining Wellspring, I have been able to combat some of the side effects of cancer treatment, such as fatigue, weight gain, brain fog, and isolation. And that’s just part of it; aside from the physical impacts, it’s the mental and social aspects that really make a difference. Being present with people who are encouraging and supportive, and who are now my friends … this is something I didn’t expect. Wellspring is better than any drug that could be given to help me get through this.”

“I have been a volunteer at Wellspring since it opened its doors in 2007, and for many years I have witnessed firsthand, how, in the midst of the chaos of cancer, Wellspring is a calming force, providing support, coping strategies, and nourishing connections. In 2020, I joined the Wellspring Alberta Board of Directors, where I gained greater knowledge of the organization’s governance and financial health. Today, as a volunteer and monthly donor, I am confident that every bit of my investment makes a difference to those Wellspring serves… helping to restore hope, and providing meaningful tools for recovery.”
