  • Dates for 2026 are: January 17th, March 14th, June 13th, September 19th

Thanks to a Bayer Grant in 2024 we have provided quarterly hands-on workshops for 15 survivors, providing nutritional education, and teaching cooking skills to help you provide nutritious and exciting meals for yourself and family.

We flew to Molokai twice and had fun presenting the workshops (including a local grocery store visit) to over 35 survivors! Meeting our goal to support more cancer patients and caregivers in underserved areas, we helped to meet a critical need for accessible, culturally grounded wellness programs across the islands.

Our events are held in a quiet, private kitchen where everyone receives personal attention. Each attendee gets direct guidance, the opportunity to ask questions freely, and meals tailored to support healing, strength, and whole-body wellness.
