Cancer Foundation for New Mexico

Cancer Foundation for New Mexico To help the people of Northern New Mexico navigate their cancer journey with hope, dignity, and needed support.

The Cancer Foundation for New Mexico (CFFNM) is a local, independent non-profit organization formed in 2003 whose mission is to help save lives by providing the needed support to enable every northern New Mexican with cancer to access treatment in Santa Fe. We assist by underwriting travel, housing and meal expenses associated with prescribed treatment. Additionally, we address the need for emotional support by providing free weekly cancer support groups for patients, their families and caregivers. We supply trained volunteer support during treatment, and also offer Spanish speaking interpreters during diagnostic procedures.

The first chemotherapy appointment can be one of the hardest steps in a cancer journey.

That’s why moments of comfort matter – a warm blanket, a cup of tea, and a caring volunteer who welcomes you with kindness.

At the Cancer Foundation for New Mexico, no patient faces treatment alone. 💛

When cancer changes everything, the stress isn’t just medical – it’s financial.

Travel. Lodging. Gas. Missed work. Unexpected bills.

Community steps in when it matters most. Your support helps to restore dignity, relieve stress, and remind people they’re not alone. Thank you.

Volunteering is one of the purest forms of generosity – the quiet decision to show up for someone you may never meet, simply because they need you. ❤️

Here in Northern New Mexico, that beautiful spirit of neighbors helping neighbors is alive and thriving because of our incredible Sweetheart Auction volunteers.

Thank you for your time, your compassion, and the countless ways you make our community stronger.

It takes a village. ❤️

Empty rooms became something extraordinary because of our volunteers, staff, sponsors, partners, and vendors.

Watch this three-day time-lapse of the Sweetheart Auction setup and see the transformation unfold. The energy. The teamwork. The heart behind it all.

We couldn’t do it without you.

A little throwback to just two days ago, when Santa Fe filled the room with joy, generosity, and some truly moving moments for cancer patients across Northern New Mexico.

Thanks again to all of our incredible volunteers and sponsors who helped make this event possible. ❤️

✨ What an incredible night. ✨

From the generosity in the room to the dedication of our volunteers and the joy of coming together, the Sweetheart Auction reminded us what New Mexico does best – show up for one another.

Because of our attendees, bidders, sponsors, and volunteers, we raised critical support for cancer care in Northern New Mexico. This community makes moments like this possible, and we are deeply grateful.

Thank you for an amazing night raising money for what matters most. ❤️
