What We Do

https://philsfriends.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/LoveMK-v2.0.mp4

1.8 million Americans will be diagnosed with cancer this year in the United States. Many of these people find themselves in hopeless situations in hospital rooms and homes across the country. Phil’s Friends provides Christ-centered practical, emotional, and spiritual support and hope through the distribution of our hand-assembled care packages to those affected by cancer, and consistent ongoing encouragement through our Cards of Hope program, virtual support through our Hope on Call™ program, and prayer.

Care Packages

When you request a care package for someone you know that has cancer, volunteers in our Hope Centers create and assemble hopeful care packages with comforting items that our friends with cancer need and enjoy. These care packages are then shipped and delivered anonymously in a decorated Phil’s Friends box.

Cards of Hope

After someone has received a care package, they can expect to receive ongoing encouragement through our Cards of Hope program. Those we support will receive hand-colored cards, testimonies, devotional letters, and other creative and positive notes. These encouraging reminders let each person know that they are not alone.

Hope on Call™

As a Christian nonprofit organization, we are dedicated to brining Christ-centered hope and support to those affected by cancer. Our trained Hope on Call™ volunteers are available to share emotional and spiritual support through a virtual visit. We are not counselors, but we are caring individuals who are here to listen, talk, and pray with you. Click here to sign up for a visit.

 

 

Hope to Hospitals

Phil’s Friends is ever-expanding into area hospitals to provide hope to those with cancer through our Hope to Hospitals program. We have a unique crew of trained volunteers to deliver care packages and to come alongside our friends with cancer at Northwestern Memorial Hospital, Rush Medical Center, University of Chicago Medical Center, Loyola University Medical Center, Advocate Good Shepherd Hospital and Franciscan Cancer Center Munster.

Hope Center

Each week hundreds of individuals volunteer in our Hope Centers. Together, we assemble care packages, decorate boxes, and color Cards of Hope that will be sent across the country to those affected by cancer. 

Rally your team, your club, your co-workers, your church, your family and friends to join us!
