Sorry, Animals are not permitted at this event.
Cancer is a difficult journey, but one you don't have to walk alone
Our Mission
Chaves County Cancer Fund (CCCF) is a non-profit 501(c)3 founded in 2006 for the purpose of providing support and financial assistance to those individuals diagnosed with cancer and their families living in Chaves County. We are totally volunteer based – non-salaried volunteers. Walk for Hope is the major fundraiser for CCCF. ALL monies donated stay in Chaves County.
Our Vision Each Year
THE WALK FOR HOPE creates A night for cancer Survivors, their families, Support Teams, and their community to come together and celebrate life! We laugh, cry, sing, eat, and we remember. We celebrate the preciousness of life and punctuate our intention to live life to the hilt.
The lasting impact: From this event we raise funds to assist cancer patients who reside within Chaves County NM.​

No one ever wants to hear "You have cancer"
DID YOU KNOW?
​
-
Every year 1.8 million new cases of cancer are diagnosed in the US.
-
606,000 people die from the disease.
-
Cancer doesn't discriminate; race, economic class, gender, or age, it can affect all.
-
It is estimated that 37% of our population will receive this diagnosis.
-
Roughly, $151 billion is spent annually on cancer treatments
-
Cancer causes depression, insecurity, and often forces life to be put on hold.
-
Ironically, cancer can also rejuvenate relationships, refocus lives, and put into perspective what is truly valuable, revealing that we are far more resilient as individuals, families, and communities than we could have ever imagined.
As one cancer survivor put it:
“Cancer is a part of our life, but it's not our whole life.”
