The Sarah Cannon Fund

As part of our mission, the Sarah Cannon Fund has been established to support people living with cancer through a variety of community-based programs and resources, including the American Cancer Society and The Community Foundation of Middle Tennessee. Since 2012, the Fund has supported our collective goal to help those affected by cancer navigate the journey from diagnosis through survivorship.

The American Cancer Society’s Road to Recovery

The American Cancer Society offers a volunteer-run service called Road to Recovery. This service provides transportation to and from treatment for people who have cancer and do not have a ride or are unable to drive themselves. Because this service is run by volunteers who donate their time and use their own cars, the drivers cannot usually drive long distances. Call (800) 227-2345 to learn how to schedule a ride in your area.

Free or Reduced-Cost Flights

Sometimes getting to treatment also includes having to fly for treatment. Angel Flight is an organization that provides free air transportation for medically necessary trips. They are a group of pilots and volunteers. You can contact Angel Flight by calling (918) 749-8992 or visiting Angel Flight.
