Providing cancer wellness services in Toledo Ohio


The Mission of The Victory Center

Our mission is to provide hope and support to cancer patients, survivors, and those closest to them.

Who we are

Since 1996 we have been reaching out to cancer patients and their families in northwest Ohio and southeast Michigan… providing love, support, compassion, hope and laughter. In 2022 alone, we provided nearly 10,000 services to those in the community going through the journey of a lifetime. We are completely privately funded – no government money or health insurance reimbursements – so the generosity of businesses and individuals keeps us going. Please consider supporting the efforts of The Victory Center by making a tax-deductible contribution, or come to one of our awesome fundraising events. Thanks for checking out The Victory Center!

Jennifer

“I would not know where I would be in my cancer journey if it weren’t for The Victory Center. I have received so much support & love from this awesome group of people. I look forward to seeing my other family on Wednesday night support group. It is so helpful being around other survivors. I don’t feel so alone in my battle against this disease. I am not anxious/fearful as I once was. I have learned to live in the moment. Enjoy the time spent here. I encourage other cancer patients to come here. From the time of diagnosis we all our survivors.”

The value they bring to their contacts surpasses excellence. The privilege to be hired to share information and education to motivate and inspire women to honor themselves in their personal situations with cancer advocacy, support, treatment, and survivorship is an honor that I respect!”

“I’ve always said that the Victory Center saved my sanity. After my second diagnoses, and other things going on in my life. I just knew I needed to get back there. A place where people understood what I was going through. Meeting other participants during the many activities is kind of healing in its own way.
Thank you to everyone there, and especially those that donate their time and talents!!!”
