Program Goals ? Continue to promote GCNYC as the premier organization for providing free cancer support for the entire family. ? Build membership and attendance by 20%+ across New York City for cancer patients and their families at the clubhouse and at Gilda Comes To You locations across NYC. ?

Build the Camp Sparkle program to a full 5-day program (9am-4pm) for 4 weeks annually which will focus on enrolling new child members first for each week before including any repeat members. This approach has helped to broaden the reach of our children's and family program.

We track all outreach efforts and social media reach on a daily basis, assuring that we are on track to achieve our outreach goals. To assure that our program is meeting the needs of our constituents, we conduct a yearly survey that is open to anyone who has used one or more of our services in the past year and use the results to tailor our program services. We track all participation in our services, both at the clubhouse and at our offsite locations to measure the progress of our program growth goal. We know we are making progress with our offsite programming when we conduct successful outreach to area medical centers and when our program is recognized and when relationships are developed or expanded. Camp Sparkle progress is measured by program growth and by successful funding of full weeks of the program.
