Expanding Komak’s Service by Developing a Volunteer Program and a Cancer Resource Catalog

Oregon Cancer Resources

Komak is pleased to announce that we have received a grant to expand our service by developing a volunteer program and a cancer resource catalog. Funding for this project is provided in part by the OHSU Knight Cancer Institute Community Partnership Program. This funding will allow us to continue to serve Komak clients in need by further developing the catalog of resources we can connect local cancer patients with and as we continue our scale-up to help more people the development of a formalized volunteer program will be key in our expansion to continue delivering on our mission.
