our work

Cancer Support VI (CSVI) was founded in 2005 as a sponsored Fund of the Community Foundation of the Virgin Islands. Our mission is to work with patients, medical institutions, and community organizations to support those impacted by cancer. We do this by providing outreach, education, advocacy, financial assistance and other resources that support patients on their cancer journeys. Additionally, we promote cancer awareness and raise funds for those battling cancer by creating engaging community-driven fundraising events and initiatives. 

Patient grants provide assistance for medical and non-medical expenses associated with cancer. Grants can help cover the costs of medical treatments and tests, hotel and travel while undergoing treatment, prosthetics, household expenses, hospice care and more.
