Review for WeSPARK Cancer Support Center, Sherman Oaks, CA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

The cancer support and counseling I received at WeSpark has made a huge difference in the quality of my life. When I came to their door 2 years ago I was sick with prostate cancer, and very frightened. Now I'm a much different person, and it is because of all the help I got at this wonderful place. One on one counseling, group support, Reiki, and Qi Gong, all in a setting that will remind you of a visit to your favorite relatives home.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

WeSpark gave me back my life. They taught me how to live with cancer, and their ongoing support is what is keeping me in a positive frame of mind.

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

get them all the money they needed. They do great work, and I would love to see them fully funded so their important service to patients with cancer can continue.

What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...

the wonderful atmosphere at WeSpark. It is like going to your favorite uncle's house. It doesn't feel like an office. It feels like a home.

The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...

capable, caring and friendly. I look forward to every visit.

If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...

help more people here in the valley, and be an example for others who want to set up cancer support in their community.

Ways to make it better...

I could go every day!

In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are...

raising money in an uncertain economy.

One thing I'd also say is that...

WeSpark is very deserving of support.
