Welcome to Cassandra Cares Cancer Foundation!

Founded to honor our fallen warrior, Cassandra Hill-Smith. We are dedicated to raising awareness of colorectal cancer and educating Arkansas minorities. We are striving to increase the number of screenings and decrease the number of colon cancer diagnoses.

Current Services

Raising Awareness

At-Home Screenings

At-Home Screenings

CCCF partners with community health workers and organizations with a mutual passion to increase community engagement and promote prevention and early detection.

Our awareness events serve to educate attendees about colorectal cancer; it’s signs and symptoms as well as screening options.

At-Home Screenings

At-Home Screenings

At-Home Screenings

The American Cancer Society recommends starting colorectal cancer screenings at 45. One goal of CCCF is to help the people we serve get screened early and timely. We offer a non-invasive test for you to use right at home. Connect with us if you are interested in ordering a kit.

Legal Assistance

At-Home Screenings

Legal Assistance

Some of of the hardest conversations to have while caring for your loved one are living wills and power of attorney. We work to help initiate those conversations and provide Legal Aid contacts to assist in legal paperwork that may be requested and/or required. Connect with us now if assistance is needed.

Cassandra’s Closet

CCCF is kicking off its Warrior Support with phase one of its program, Cassandra’s Closet. “The Closet” provides free clothing and accessories to cancer patients undergoing treatment. As part of our mission, we aim to make this challenging journey a little easier by offering a selection of comfortable and stylish items to those in need, at no cost.
