WHO WE ARE Colon Cancer Support Network of the Carolinas is dedicated to providing support to colon cancer patients as they navigate the emotional, physical, and financial challenges of their diagnosis by offering peer-to-peer mentoring, financial assistance, and facilitated support groups. We are a registered 501©3 nonprofit, EIN# 454761914. HOW WE BEGAN While Harrisburg resident, Yvette Ferris, was delivering her fourth child, she learned of a significant tumor that was determined to be Stage III colon cancer. With three other young children at home and her fourth having just arrived, the horrible news brought 36 year old Yvette and her husband to their knees. They soon realized that there were very limited resources available to help her cope with her new life; no one to tell her what to expect, how to handle the effects of the disease, or to support her during treatment and her healing after treatment. Yvette’s friends and family saw her struggling and rallied around her. They also found many other colon cancer survivors in even more difficult circumstances than Yvette and vowed to turn her struggle into a legacy that would benefit the lives of others. Colon Cancer Support Network (formerly known as The Yvette W. Ferris Foundation) was founded in 2012 – the year that Yvette was officially declared cancerfree!
