The Wellness Community (TWC) is a
national nonprofit organization that provides support,
education and hope to people with cancer and their loved
ones. Through participation in professionally led support
groups, educational workshops and mind/body classes utilizing
the “Patient Active” concept, people affected
by cancer learn vital skills that enable them to regain
control, reduce isolation and restore hope regardless of the
stage of disease. Most importantly, TWC provides a home-like
setting for people fighting cancer to connect with and learn
from each other.

Wellness Community? Attend one of our Newcomers' Orientations

How You can Help TWC/GLV
We are proud to continue offering quality programs to our participants
free of charge! Local healthcare professionals continue to donate
their time. Institutions such as Northampton Community College allow
us to utilize their space at no cost for several of our off-site programs.
These are just a few examples of the way our surrounding area has
helped support us! You can help too -- here's how:
- GoodSearch is a search engine which donates 50-percent of its revenue
to the charities and schools designated by its users. It's a simple
and compelling concept. You use GoodSearch exactly as you would any
other search engine. Because it's powered by Yahoo!, you get proven
search results. The money GoodSearch donates to your cause comes
from its advertisers — the users and the organizations do not spend a
dime! Add Goodsearch as your search engine or toolbar to have a
penny donated to TWC/GLV for each internet search. Purchase gifts
through this site to have a percentage of the cost donated to TWC/GLV.
Call Becky for details on how you can start using Goodsearch today.
- Drop off your used printer ink cartridges at TWC/GLV! Staples credits
us $3 for each cartridge that is recycled. Help TWC/GLV and the
environment!! Call Carol for more details or to arrange a drop-off time.
- Get our calendar of events emailed to you to help us GO GREEN! Call
Becky if you would like to be added to our email list.
- Attend “Dining to Donate” at TGIF on June 4th. Call Becky for
details.
- Participate in “Lehigh Valley Grand Prix” on June 14th. Call Becky
for details.
- Shop at the “Boutique at the Rink,” the 35th annual sale to raise
money for TWC/GLV, St. Luke’s Visiting Nurse Association Hospice, and
St. Luke’s Cancer Center. Sale days are as follows: May 27th Preview
Night 4:00 pm – 8:00 pm ($10.00 admission cost for first night only),
