Man Up to Cancer - Local Chapters
Man Up to Cancer has more than 30 local chapters across North America, and one in Europe, and we expect more to develop in the years to come.
Chapters give our members opportunities to get together in person for meetings, events, or simply to hang out. We call these #wolfpackmeetups. Many chapters have zoom meetings, active online chats and Facebook groups, and their own logos.
In 2023, MUTC provided provide funding to help chapters have a group meal or outing. For example:
North Carolina chapter went to a minor league baseball game
Eastern Ontario chapter had a relaxing cookout
Tampa Bay chapter went to a Lightning hockey game
MUTC also supports our chapter leaders to provide educational opportunities by engaging with local cancer centers and health experts on topics that are important to our membership, including fitness and nutrition; sexual health and wellbeing; strategies to support mental health; side effect management; finances and careers.
To get started with a chapter, you must first become a Man Up to Cancer member by joining our Howling Place Facebook group.
If there’s not a chapter in your area, think about starting one! Our meetup coordinator, Don Helgeson, can help you get a chapter rolling.
