Wright Cancer Resource Center in Ellsworth is one of only three freestanding cancer resource centers in Maine. It serves Hancock and Washington Counties where the incidence, prevalence, and mortality rates for cancer far exceed both the state and national averages. Wright Center is the place to turn for education and support in making sense of a cancer diagnosis and proceeding with your life. Wright Cancer Resource Center provides a comfortable place for cancer patients, families, and friends to meet their educational and emotional needs. Our staff is almost entirely volunteer; professionals and caring community members donate their time to offer classes, meetings, and programs that are free to people with cancer, their families, and friends. We offer books, brochures, video and audio tapes as well as a computer with access to the internet.

Beth’s Trees for HOPE Festival

December 13–14

Maine Coast Mall, Ellsworth

COME SEE THE TREES! Join us at the Maine Coast Mall in Ellsworth for a special 2-day fundraising event and a spectacular display of beautifully decorated Christmas trees.

Members of our surrounding communities and local businesses have donated theme-decorated artificial trees in honor or memory of loved ones, or for any special reason. Admission is free, and raffle tickets will be sold for your chance to win your favorite tree. Tickets are $1 for 1 or $20 for 25.

All proceeds benefit the Beth C. Wright Cancer Resource Center. Your kindness and generosity will help support people on their cancer journey in many ways, including financial assistance to ease the cost of travel to treatment or help with household bills. We also offer one-on-one complementary therapies, such as reflexology and therapeutic massage, to help people cope with the side effects of cancer treatment.

There is still time to donate a tree if you’d like! We look forward to seeing you and celebrating the spirit of the holiday season together.
