Why should you participate in Idaho Gives?

Idaho Gives is designed to bring the state together, raising money and awareness for Idaho nonprofits. This week of online giving takes place May 1st through 4th 2023.

IdahoGives.org provides an easy-to-use platform for donors to search, support and donate to Idaho nonprofits.

Annually, roughly 4000 men in Idaho will be told they have Cancer! How can you help support our mission?

 
 

3 Reasons why you can feel good about a donation to our cause:

  •  We’re really efficient! The vast majority of the funds we raise support Guest-centered activities. In addition to our three fishing retreats, we host a variety of shorter follow-on activities throughout the year so that we can provide our guests and their families with ongoing support for as long as they need it.

 

  • We’re building a community.  We provide retreats for guests from all over the southern and eastern part of the state and have relationships with most cancer centers and many cancer service providers around the state. We’ve developed strong relationships with cancer centers, oncologists, nurse practitioners and patient navigators throughout the state. These professionals, community groups like Cancer Connection and former guests frequently refer men with cancer to our retreats.

 

  • We’re absolutely certain we are making a difference in the lives of our guests. How do we know? Well, you almost have to be there to witness the transformation that takes place over the course of three short days. Guests and Volunteers, who begin the weekend as a collection of strangers, come away members of a truly special band of brothers, each changed for the better. As one of our recent guests wrote us shortly after returning home from a retreat “Loving life more than ever. Thank you to all involved. I may have cancer, but cancer doesn’t have me.”
