If you’d like to donate to support cancer patients, here’s how.
Patients or their families often express interest in donating to New England Cancer Specialists in honor of the work we do. We appreciate your support—but we are not a non-profit organization, and any donations we accept will not be tax-deductible. That’s why we encourage our generous supporters to consider donating to one of these worthy, local nonprofits. These groups provide a variety of help and support to patients and families during their cancer journey. We are proud to work with them.
Thank you in advance for your support!

The Dempsey Center was founded in 2008 by actor and Maine native, Patrick Dempsey. During his mother's journey with cancer, Patrick discovered the importance of treating the person, not just the disease, as someone moves through treatment. Today, we provide comfort, compassion, connection, and choice to people impacted by cancer—all at no cost. Cancer patients, care partners, family members, and friends can access a wide range of integrative services to assist them from diagnosis through survivorship either in-person at one of our two physical Centers in Maine, or through our virtual center Dempsey Connects.
