We Are

The Rio Grande Cancer Foundation

For over two decades, the Rio Grande Cancer Foundation has served the needs of the El Paso cancer community.

Founded in 1996 and funded by the sale of the El Paso Cancer Treatment Center, our mission has remained the same: reducing the burden of cancer through programs that promote education, awareness, early detection, prevention, healthy living, quality of life, and financial and material support.

We are the largest foundation of its kind in El Paso, and our resources support both caregivers and patients facing EVERY type of cancer at EVERY age and at EVERY stage of their journeys.

Because cancer support is more than treatment.

Making a Difference

Our Mission to Improve Cancer Care

The Rio Grande Cancer Foundation is dedicated to reducing the human and economic effects of cancer on the citizens of El Paso County through the financial support and development of effective programs for advocacy, education, early detection, and other services to cancer patients and their families.

The Rio Grande Cancer Foundation is the foremost center for enhancing the quality of life for those affected by cancer.

  • All people are entitled to accurate information about ways to reduce their risks of developing and dying from cancer.
  • All people are entitled to cancer prevention, screening, diagnosis, treatment, rehabilitation, hospice and support services.
  • The human and financial impact of cancer on the people of the region can be reduced by establishing strong, collaborative partnerships at state and local levels.
  • Cooperation among public, private, and volunteer agencies and individuals increases the potential for limited resources to serve more people and minimize duplication of effort.

A truly homegrown organization, the Rio Grande Cancer Foundation exists solely for the benefit of the citizens of El Paso County. Our purpose is to aid and assist local cancer patients and other concerned community members in their search for information and support. Our funds remain in the El Paso area to serve El Pasoans.

As leaders in the local cancer care community, the Foundation strives to build support and collaboration through the convening and sharing of accurate, accessible cancer-related information.
