#GivingTuesday is a global day of giving fueled by the power of social media and collaborative efforts. Celebrated on the Tuesday following Thanksgiving and the widely recognized shopping events Black Friday and Cyber Monday, #GivingTuesday kicks off the charitable season.

One of the best ways to get involved is in your own community. This November 28th, join the movement and give. Your contribution to SailsUp 4 Cancer will fund research, prevention & care.

SailsUp 4 Cancer is extremely proud of its Spinnaker Fund. This Fund has been specifically tailored to individuals and families who are suffering financial hardship as a result of the loss of income due to their struggles with cancer. SailsUp realizes that the last thing a cancer patient needs is additional stress.

"The SU4C board has saved my life in more ways than one. I can't say thank you enough. You are true angels and your generosity has made life a little less stressful and that means so much." Sincerely forever, B.D.

"There are not enough words to express my thanks for the Spinnaker Fund Grant I received from you. I put it toward paying my mortgage." Warmly, B.F.

"I am writing on behalf of my father, L.P., who unfortunately is suffering from metastatic liver cancer. Your organization brightened his day when he received your letter containing the generous spinnaker fund grant that your organization provided. Your contribution clearly will help with the cost and more importantly, brightened his day knowing that others are helping him though this difficult time." Sincerely, K.W.

"SailsUp 4 Cancer is a wonderful local charity that assists people dealing with a cancer diagnosis. They have assisted many of my customers at The Pink Mermaid that are dealing with cancer & lymphedema. The group is devoted to their cause and I wish them blessings of every type! When you see their many events advertised you should attend! The concerts are soooo much fun and such a worthy cause!!" ~ C.R.
