The 10/10 Visionary fund is a permanently restricted endowment with the goal of raising $10 million in 10 years. Its purpose is to generate the income needed to cover the Foundation’s operating costs, in order to earmark all other fundraising for lifesaving patient programs: Travel Mileage Reimbursement, Overnight Lodging, Grocery Cards, and Support Groups.

“Valerie and I have been highly involved with the Cancer Foundation for New Mexico for over a decade. I have served on the Board as an active Member, and as Chair for a number of years. Valerie is deeply committed to her work in the chemotherapy suite as a Volunteer.

“We have chosen to provide legacy gifts primarily for local charities in our estate planning, as we have always been loyal to Santa Fe and New Mexico. With more than a thousand charities in Santa Fe, we have lots of choices. What distinguishes the Cancer Foundation for New Mexico from other worthwhile charities is that we actually ‘help save lives,’ and not every charity can point to that result.”

-Valerie and Bud Hamilton, 10/10 Visionary Society Members

    Testimonials

    “As a caregiver, if I didn’t have the support group program I don’t think I would have made it as far as I have. The sharing they do let’s you know that you’re not the only one going through this.”
    “I know the cancer journey personally and through family members and friends so I understand how the stress and difficulty will increase if a patient must tackle it with limited or no resources. The Cancer Foundation for New Mexico is true to its mission to help save lives. That’s why they get my dollars”
    It’s overwhelming when cancer enters your life and changes it forever. People who have never experienced having cancer in their lives can’t fully understand what it is like.”
    “Your kindness and friendly help were a definite part of my recovery! Because of you and others I didn’t feel alone while fighting to get well. Thanks so much for everything you did for me.”
    “Thank you for making the challenges of radiation treatment easier. We are very appreciative of all you do for us and others who are undergoing cancer treatments. You are needed in our community.”
