Living Journeys is a lifeline for Gunnison County residents facing cancer
I’ve seen firsthand the impact Living Journeys and a strong community can have on those facing cancer. Every act of kindness, every resource shared, and every connection made provides strength and hope to those battling cancer.
We stand with patients and families every step of the way. Whether it’s professional counseling, monthly support groups, rides to treatment, direct financial assistance to pay medical premiums and rent, or healthy meal deliveries, we ensure no one fights cancer alone.
As we celebrate 25 years in the Gunnison Valley, I share a heartfelt thanks to YOU for your continued commitment to our mission. We cannot do this work without supporters like you.
With gratitude,
Julie Reid, Executive Director
