Friends of Turning Point - Kansas City
Message from the Friends of Turning Point
Friends of Turning Point was formed to help support this meaningful organization in three very important ways: First, by organizing fundraising events such as the annual membership drive and the Evening Among Friends party; second, by helping to broaden membership through these fundraising initiatives; and finally, by increasing awareness of Turning Point in our community and meeting the various volunteering needs.
As a Friend of Turning Point, your donation enables the over 8,000 annually diagnosed individuals in our community to find the assistance and hope they need – free of charge. A Friends of Turning Point Membership is accompanied by a one-year subscription to the Turning Point newsletter as well as recognition in the newsletter, on this website and at Friends’ events.
If your family has ever dealt with a serious illness, you know firsthand the emotional rollercoaster that ensues.
Quote from a recent participant at Turning Point that reinforces the vital need for this organization:
“I came to this group after a recurrence of a rare cancer. I was desperate for help in making me feel there was hope, when my oncologist had given me very little reason for hope. Not only did I learn to feel hopeful but also joyful about life. I can’t imagine how I would have dealt with all I did without this group.” Nancy, Thymoma cancer
Your support of Turning Point is greatly appreciated.
