Every year in Saskatchewan, 6,200 people will hear, “You have cancer.” They are your friends, family, and neighbours – they are someone you love.
Your gift can ensure if and when those words come, that your loved ones will have access to the best oncologists, advanced and innovative technology, and the latest research to achieve the best outcome possible.
Every dollar you provide through your Will stays here to support the cancer care needs of the people of our province. This speaks to the very heart of our work — which is helping Saskatchewan patients during their cancer journey.
Through your legacy gift in your Will, you can enhance cancer care provided through the Saskatchewan Cancer Agency and its facilities and programs:
- Saskatoon Cancer Centre
- Allan Blair Cancer Centre, Regina
- Regina and Saskatoon Cancer Patient Lodges
- Early Detection Screening programs for Breast, Cervical, and Colorectal cancers
- World-class Researchers in the province who are making a difference in treatment and outcomes for patients
- Cancer Prevention for a healthy cancer-free Saskatchewan
Talk it over with your loved ones, then call your lawyer or advisor about drafting or updating your Will or adding a Codicil. Print our bequest wording to take to your lawyer.
