The Tehachapi Cancer Foundation couldn’t do what we do without your help and support. This village has been amazing supporting us for 10 years.

Needs range from assisting with utilities to gas for their vehicle. Treatment is a minimum of 45 miles one way. Madera Children’s hospital is 160 miles one way. This is a big expense on a family. Taking time away from work, foo...
The Tehachapi Cancer Foundation recently hosted its annual fundraiser, Screw Cancer 5 "Staying Alive," at Dorner's Family Vineyard for the second consecutive year. The event was blessed with perfect weather, and despite many other activities happening around town, we had an incredible turnout. We are deeply grateful to everyone who took the time to support us.

Hello, fellow villagers. I thought it was time for an update on Tehachapi Cancer Foundation. With no in-person fundraisers for over a year now we, like all nonprofits, are struggling. We are currently assisting four of our villagers with their financial needs. To date we have not had to say “NO, we can’t help.” We have had to scale back how much we can help; that way everyone gets something. We can’t thank our community enough. We are relying on private donations, some social media fundraisers and a silent auction. We are blessed to have the lo...
I wanted to give everyone an update from the Tehachapi Cancer Foundation. To say 2020 was a rough year is an understatement with businesses having to shut down or scale back, high unemployment and being on a “stay at home” order.

We received a complete tour of their state-of-the-art facility dedicated to cancer care treatment. Some very unique and specialized equipment is located there, with highly...
