Review for Cancer Support Community Greater Philadelphia, Philadelphia, PA, USA
I want to tell you about the most amazing, organization and their impact in our local community:
Kelly is the CEO, who leads the Cancer Support Community of Philadelphia with passion, grit and determination to provide free local programs of support to anyone, at any age, at any stage of cancer.
Kelly fully carries out CSCGP’s mission:
To ensure that all people impacted by cancer are empowered by knowledge, strengthened by action and sustained by Community. Programs are led by mental health professionals designed to enhance the mind body and spirit of people whose lives have been affected by cancer.
Beginning in March 2020, Kelly focused the staff to pivot and move the multi-site programs to a virtual platform for all ages and all stages of cancer. Yoga, Mental Health, Caregiving, Childrens’ and Teens Programs and more are offered at no cost to participants. This makes a difference in the lives of people affected by cancer.
Simultaneously, she led by example and worked round the clock and despite staff layoffs secured PPP loans and grants to keep the doors open.
Kelly is a cancer survivor who leverages her experience and knowledge to tailor the programs to the community it serves adapting to the ever changing needs of the community CSCGP serves. Kelly strongly supports a diverse and inclusive environment, is generous with her time and listens to members, donors, staff, volunteers and board of directors with an open mind. #Community is Stronger than Cancer
