Supporting Gynecologic Cancer Patients Throughout Colorado
Support That’s Here for You, When You Need It Most

Peer Support: Woman to Woman
A cancer diagnosis can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to face it alone. Our Woman to Woman peer mentorship program connects newly diagnosed women with trained survivor mentors who share the same gynecologic cancer type and truly understand what you’re going through. From diagnosis to recovery, they offer emotional support, guidance, and hope—because they’ve walked this path themselves. Mentoring happens through phone, text, email, or virtual meetups, tailored to your preferences.

Community Outreach
A cancer diagnosis and recovery is never a solo mission. We believe in building a strong, caring community around every woman and family we support. In addition to our annual fundraisers—A Toast to Teal, Teal Tee-Off, Be Ovary Aware, & Casino Night—we host monthly gatherings and events designed to connect, uplift, and empower. From support groups and educational workshops to family-friendly activities, luncheons, game nights, and tournaments, there’s a place for everyone—patients, survivors, caregivers, and loved ones.

Financial Assistance Program
Sue DiNapoli’s mission still guides us today: “Making seriously ill women choose between paying for their cancer treatment and paying for their house payment seems unusually cruel.” Our Financial Assistance Program provides Colorado-wide grants to help ease the burden of expenses like insurance deductibles, prescriptions, utility bills, or rent/mortgage during or shortly after treatment. We are here to stand beside women facing gynecologic cancer, ensuring no one has to fight this battle or face these financial worries alone.
Newly Diagnosed with a Gynecologic Cancer? You’re Not Alone, We’re Here for You.
A diagnosis of cervical, ovarian, uterine, vaginal, or vulvar cancer can leave you feeling overwhelmed and uncertain about what to do next. We understand how heavy this moment can feel, and we’re here to guide you with care and expertise. We provide financial grants to ease the burden of treatment, trained peer mentors who understand what you’re going through, professionally facilitated support groups led by a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW).
Sue’s Gift is the only non-profit in southern Colorado offering licensed clinical support.

One of my favorite songs is The Gift by Jim Brickman. It's meaningful to me personally as a love song. But it's so much more. I especially like these words from that song because, when I look around me, I see many who are giving their love away.
