"Sometimes accepting support is one of the stronge "Sometimes accepting support is one of the strongest things we can do for our family." ✨ 

When Kingston (6) was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s Lymphoma, his mom Kara wanted to ensure her whole family felt supported—especially his sisters, Zoey and Kinzey. 

Through Camp Gilda, holiday celebration and play days in Noogieland, the Eatmon family found community, laughter and hope during cancer treatment. Now in remission, they’re sharing their story to remind other families: you never have to navigate this alone.❤️

Testimonial Image
Gilda's Club has been a safe haven, a second family, and a wonderful experience for me. I have laughed, cried, and learned so much.
- Alicia
Testimonial Image
Gilda’s is an extension of my family in a way I would never have expected. It’s made such a positive impact on my family and me.
- Mark
Testimonial Image
I didn't choose to get cancer; it chose me. At Gilda's, I've learned that cancer doesn't define who I am, what I can do, or how to live my life. I'm still in charge of me as I walk this journey learning to live with cancer, and not for cancer.
- Denise
Testimonial Image
The support I've received has been invaluable and it's comforting to know I'm surrounded by people who truly understand the cancer journey and are there to support me every step of the way.
- Houwaida
Testimonial Image
As a person caring for a loved one with cancer, I cannot recommend Gilda’s enough to others. Gilda’s left me more informed and less alone. It’s a vital resource.
- Ziva
Testimonial Image
Gilda’s saved me when my husband was diagnosed with brain cancer. Gilda’s became an emotional lifeline. To be surrounded by those with similar stories was invaluable. After he passed, I joined the bereavement group and learned to navigate how to live with loss.
