Wellspring is a Canada-wide network of charities, offering programs and services, at no charge and without referral, to anyone, with any type of cancer, at any stage in their journey.
Founded in 1992, Wellspring Cancer Support Foundation began its operations in Toronto. Inspired by Wellspring’s mission, other Wellspring organizations were formed in other areas of the country.
Wellspring Cancer Support Foundation oversees the Wellspring intellectual property and operations in the Greater Toronto Area (Toronto and Oakville).
Hearing the words “you have cancer” is life changing. Over 600 Canadians are diagnosed with cancer every day, and 80% have significant physical, emotional, and financial challenges that go well beyond the important medical treatments they receive in hospital. That’s where Wellspring fits in.
Wellspring provides a community of support for those living with cancer and their loved ones, driven by our members’ needs.
Wellspring offers more than 50 diverse and evidence-informed programs and services, delivered by paid professionals. Programs fall within 6 pillars, and are available 5-6 days per week.
Volunteers are the heart of Wellspring. We have hundreds of volunteers that support all areas of the organization, providing:
We are 100% donor funded
Wellspring seeks to break down barriers by ensuring all of our programs and services are available free of charge and without referral.
While we don’t require medical referrals, the number one way new members hear about us is through health care professionals.
Wellspring charges no fees and receives no core government funding. Programs and operations are made possible only through the generosity of donors and funds raised through donations, sponsorships and special events.
Your donation makes a difference.
