  • 1.  ApotheCare for Cancer Patients: Registry for help

    Posted 12-03-2025 16:41

    I have just learned about this awesome new website called Apothecare.

    You can register as a cancer patient to get help such as: meals, rides, pet-assistance, gift cards, etc. when people ask "How can I help?" you can sign up and send them your registry link.

    And it's Canadian!  Getting Started Guide | ApotheCare

    ApotheCare is a Canadian-registered non-profit organization. We provide a free gift registry for cancer patients and caregivers, making it easy to ask for what you need and simple for others to give it. Proceeds from donations and our commission-based affiliate marketplace help to fund our Giving Back Program.

    Thank you for posting this. There is a young woman in my community of Campbell River who has stage 4 ovarian cancer and is in very poor health. She is a single mom with now 3 children, as her 23 year-old daughter died last week in a car accident. She just had her surgery on Monday. Our community is looking for resources for her and her family. Perhaps this organization can help a little.

    You're welcome!
    It's a new site - just launched October 2025, so will likely gain popularity soon as we spread the word. A lady named Tennille Corbett was on Global Edmonton talking about the launch.  She created Apothecare after her own cancer experience with stage 4 cancer.
    :)
