Sponsor a Chemo Care Backpack

This summer, Man Up to Cancer has a goal of funding 250 backpacks for men facing cancer.

With your help, we can make it happen!

For $100, you can sponsor a backpack that will be filled with comfort items and shipped to a cancer fighter undergoing chemotherapy, radiation, or other treatments. Don’t have $100 to donate? Any amount will help us reach our goal. Your gift is fully tax deductible.

In our Chemo Care Backpacks, men receive a water bottle, hydration tabs, fleece cap and blanket, lip balm, skin lotion, Dude Wipes, a Man Up to Cancer coin, a folder filled with helpful resources, and other items. 

More than that – they receive the love, support, and solidarity of our global community of more than 3,000 men impacted by cancer. Each backpack is a lifeline, reminding men they’re not alone.

Donors who give $100 or more will receive a die-cut Man Up to Cancer sticker and a personal thank you note from founder Trevor Maxwell, along with a shout-out on Man Up to Cancer’s Instagram page. 

I just received my backpack today and when I opened it I was flooded with emotion. I never knew just opening a box could do that. Thank you for reminding me I’m not alone.
