Founders Story:
There are moments in life that change us forever.
In May 2025, I heard the words no one ever wants to hear: “You have cancer.”
Like so many others, my life changed in an instant.
In June 2025, I began chemotherapy treatments. The journey that followed was one of the most physically, emotionally, and mentally challenging experiences of my life. There were days when I could barely stand. Simple tasks such as pouring a glass of ice water, washing fruit, preparing a meal, taking a shower, getting dressed, or walking through a grocery store became overwhelming.
There were days when the pain, exhaustion, fatigue, nausea, weakness, and emotional stress made it difficult to think clearly. Some days I didn’t even have the energy or mental focus to open my mail, pay my bills, or complete everyday paperwork.
Cancer affects every part of a person’s life—physically, emotionally, mentally, financially, and spiritually.
Yet through every challenge, one thing remained stronger than cancer itself:
My determination to fight.
My determination to heal.
My determination to live.
During my own journey, I witnessed many individuals walking through treatment with little or no support. Some came to appointments alone. Others struggled to obtain the personal hygiene and home care essentials needed during treatment. I also witnessed caregivers carrying tremendous responsibilities while trying to remain strong for someone they loved.
Those experiences inspired me to establish LOVE & GRACE Cancer Support, Inc.
Our mission is to support individuals diagnosed with cancer and their caregivers by providing personal hygiene and home care essentials, compassionate support, empowering workshops, and meaningful resources that nurture the mind, body, and spirit.
Our vision is to cultivate a compassionate community where every individual facing cancer and every caregiver receives unwavering support, strength, and hope—ensuring no one walks the journey to fight cancer alone.
A community united against cancer
From the moment of diagnosis through recovery and beyond,
We are calling on our community, local businesses, organizations, churches, families, and friends to help us make a difference in the lives of individuals diagnosed with cancer and their caregivers.

"When I received my diagnosis, I felt completely overwhelmed. Love & Grace stepped in with warmth, guidance, and genuine kindness that carried my family through our toughest season."
Community member
"As a full-time caregiver for my spouse, I often felt helpless because I could not take her pain away. It was tough watching my wife battle through the stages of treatment from chemotherapy, double mastectomy, and multiple surgeries. This organization gives a caregiver space to breathe, connect, and regain their own emotional strength."
Dedicated caregiver
Local volunteer
"Volunteering with Love & Grace showed me what real community care looks like. Every donation and hour volunteered directly helps someone right here in Union and the Upstate, SC.
