About Us

The Donald W. Reynolds Cancer Support House provides cost-free, ongoing support for patients fighting cancer. The House is a haven where patients join others to accomplish a shared goal– survivorship.

The Reynolds Cancer Support House is the largest free-standing cancer support facility in the country. Located away from a sterile hospital or clinical setting, the Support House provides individuals a comfortable and inviting place of recovery and hope.

Our mission is to provide cost-free, non-medical support programs and services to cancer patients and caregivers, and to provide educational programs to the community in support of early detection of cancer. If you would like to know more about us, please feel free to visit the Contact Us page.

History of the Cancer Support Foundation

1978

The Foundation begins providing cancer patients transportation to radiation therapy.

1990

In response to need, the foundation begins providing counseling, financial and pharmaceutical assistance, support services and other non-medical assistance through the Phillips Cancer Support House. Sparks Medical Center (one of the two major area hospitals) becomes a financial supporter.

1994

St Edward Mercy Medical Center (the other major hospital) also becomes a financial supporter. This unification of the two medical centers with the Cancer Support Foundation benefits cancer patients in our service area by increasing referrals and providing needed operational financial assistance.

2000

The Donald W. Reynolds Foundation awards a grant of $2.7 million for the construction of our 22,000 square foot, state-of-the-art support house which serves as a national model for cancer information, education, and support.
