Providing support and encouragement to those touched by cancer.
One Tough Cookie, based in Stamford, CT, is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit with a simple yet powerful mission: to create moments where, even for a short time, cancer doesn’t exist and is replaced with hope and joy.
Through heartfelt care packages, uplifting events, and our Pick-Me-Up Corner—filled with affirmations, eBooks, music, games, and more—we aim to bring light and positivity into your journey. Whether you’re beginning treatment, preparing to start, or supporting someone as a caregiver or nurse, we are here to walk alongside you, offering compassion, love, and a mental escape when it’s needed most.
Most importantly we are here to remind you that CANCER SUCKS but it doesn’t have to make you crumble!
Upcoming Events
Join us!
Whether it's sponsoring a Tough Cookie, volunteering to help pack bags or spreading the word by following us on our social media, to name a few, your involvement is what helps us create a strong encouraging community and gets us closer to expanding our reach.
If all we do is change one person's life, then we have done a lot.
