Strength for Life (SFL) is a non-profit providing FREE exercise classes and wellness retreats to cancer patients/survivors on LI. Our immediate purpose is to help cancer patients feel their absolute best, to regain their 'strength for life', improve their daily functional activities, quality of life and self esteem. The ultimate mission is to educate the medical community on the benefits of adding exercise to the treatment and recovery plan. Strength for Life programs provide comprehensive exercise therapy and fitness education via hospitals, churches, community centers and PT facilities on regular weekday schedules.
Improvements to the following have been reported between 55 - 72% in strength, range of motion, endurance, dealing with everyday stress, thinking about (their) illness; how they feel on a daily average, outlook of the future and sleep patterns.

Our classes and retreats have become a source of support for all the survivors, even those not inclined to join a 'support group'.
Consider participation and/or donation...financial or inkind for the raffles.
Everything matters.
“I can do things you cannot, you can do things I cannot; together we can do great things.”
