For the Community

In one way or another, cancer touches the lives of everyone. That's why Pluta makes every effort to ease its impact not only on patients, but on families as well. Funds raised through community efforts support the Center’s ability to offer an extra level of care, through each phase, that is often overlooked in traditional cancer treatment. These services include:

• Medication, food, and transportation for patients with economic hardship
• Lunches for extended chemotherapy sessions
• Complementary nutrition counseling and massage therapy

People find inspiring ways to give—such as money raised from sporting events like the Red Wings Mother’s Day breast cancer awareness games, ladies’ hockey tournaments and high school basketball games, to proceeds from the Jefferson Estates neighborhood cookbook “A Matter of Taste,” to the brass fireman’s bell (hand-crafted by a Pluta patient) that is rung upon the completion of each person’s chemotherapy and radiation treatment.    

With continued support, there are no boundaries to the exceptional care Pluta Cancer Center can provide.
