Support the Center

We at the Simms/Mann -- UCLA Center for Integrative Oncology are committed to maintaining wellness, maximizing health, and complementing the best oncologic practices and scientific research through individualized care offered by a multidisciplinary team committed to enhancing the physical, psychological and spiritual well-being of people touched by cancer.

Our comprehensive approach addresses the needs of the whole person with cancer and their family members.

Almost all of our programs are offered to patients without fees and the entire Center is dependent on philanthropic support to enable us to fulfill our mission.  We need the support of our patients, their families and their friend. 

Voluntary donations are essential for our day-to-day operations. Almost all of our programs are offered to individuals without fees with the exception of the Reflections Boutique and the educational programs offered by our integrative medicine physicians, Drs. Mary Hardy and Karen Duvall, which are fee-for-service.

We depend on the generosity of others and we encourage individuals to make a financial contribution that is tax deductible to the maximum extent allowable by law.

You may donate online, by mailing contributions to the Center or by contacting our administrator, Marcia Britvan, for information at (310) 794-6644 or by email at simmsmanncenter@ucla.edu.
