About

THE NEED
Ironically cancer treatment is often more brutal than the disease. Treatments leave the body diminished in function, affecting one’s state of mind and quality of life. The current medical model of cancer treatment may resolve the disease, but the resulting negative side-effects are often left unaddressed. Medical studies prove that exercise helps minimize the detrimental side-effects of cancer treatment, aiding in the return to a better quality of life. FIT TO FIGHT helps cancer survivors re-establish trust in their bodies and return to daily life as productive members of our community.

THE MISSION & GOALS
Through a supportive program of fitness, recreation and education, FIT TO FIGHT strives to:
- Improve health and well-being of cancer patients and cancer survivors
- Provide positive effects of group exercise
- Provide opportunity for social interaction, support, and exchange with others who are fighting or have fought cancer
- Involve the community in supporting cancer patients and aiding survivors in their return to   a quality of life that is productive and satisfying
