Unlike larger charities, the Cancer Concern Center is completely focused on supporting women and men with cancer who live in Northern Ocean County. Programs include support groups, nutritional counseling, yoga classes, new wigs, and emotional assistance.

The Cancer Concern Center is run by volunteers and does not charge any mandatory fees. Each year, the Cancer Concern Center struggles to raise $50,000 (its entire annual budget) so that it can keep its doors open in Point Pleasant Beach.
