Knowledge, Hope & Support for Thyroid and Head/Neck Cancer Fighters 

​

A diagnosis of thyroid, head or neck cancer can change everything. For many, it brings fear, uncertainty and the overwhelming challenge of navigating complex medical decisions.

The THANC Foundation exists to ensure that no one faces that journey alone.

Since their founding, they have united patients, caregivers, physicians, researchers and supporters around a shared mission: to improve the lives of individuals living with these cancers through groundbreaking research, trustworthy educational resources and a deeply connected community.

Driving Breakthroughs Through Research

Research is central to the THANC Foundation’s work. They collaborate with leading physicians, scientists and medical institutions to push the boundaries of understanding around thyroid, head and neck cancers.

Their studies explore treatment approaches, long-term outcomes and quality-of-life improvements, creating a stronger foundation for future care.

By funding and conducting rigorous clinical research, THANC helps accelerate medical progress and bring real-world data to the forefront. Their ultimate goal is clear: to advance knowledge and help improve outcomes for patients everywhere.

Trusted, Accessible Knowledge: THANC Guide and TIRO

The THANC Foundation believes that knowledge can empower and comfort. To support patients, caregivers and medical professionals, they created two essential, freely available resources:

THANC Guide

A comprehensive, patient-friendly educational platform designed to make diagnosis, treatment options, recovery and long-term follow-up easier to understand. The THANC Guide helps reduce fear and confusion by offering clear, compassionate guidance at every step of the cancer journey.

TIRO

A professional resource for clinicians that offers evidence-based information, tools and insights to support the diagnosis and treatment of thyroid, head and neck cancers. TIRO helps medical professionals stay informed and deliver stronger patient care.

Together, these platforms ensure that anyone seeking reliable information – patients, caregivers or physicians – has access to it when they need it most.


Advocacy Through Storytelling: The 30 Stories Campaign

38932-30-stories thanc

Through their 30 Stories campaign, the THANC Foundation highlights powerful, real-life accounts from survivors who faced cancer with courage and resilience. These stories provide comfort and inspiration for those confronting new diagnoses or navigating treatment.

By amplifying these voices, THANC fosters empathy, breaks down stigma and builds a sense of solidarity within the survivor community.

Community Programs That Bring People Together

Connection and community are essential to healing. The THANC Foundation leads creative outreach programs, workshops, events and educational initiatives that bring patients, families, supporters and clinicians together. These programs strengthen emotional well-being, elevate awareness and create spaces where support flows freely.

Podcasts for Caregivers, Survivors and Physicians

THANC also produces podcasts featuring honest, meaningful conversations with survivors, caregivers and medical experts. These episodes offer guidance, understanding and encouragement for everyone touched by thyroid, head and neck cancers. The result is a supportive audio resource that extends beyond medical care and reaches into the everyday realities of healing.

A Collaborative Future Built on Hope and Innovation

What sets the THANC Foundation apart is their collaborative spirit. They work side by side with the people they serve—patients searching for clarity, caregivers offering strength, physicians advancing the science and supporters who believe in a more hopeful future.

Together, they are building a powerful network grounded in knowledge, compassion and innovation. Their work lights the way forward for anyone beginning or continuing a cancer journey.

For those facing thyroid, head or neck cancers, the THANC Foundation offers one steadfast message: you are not alone.

🎟️ Introducing Charitable Events: Sell Tickets Inside Your Campaigns!

Most nonprofits sell event tickets in one tool and collect donations in another, which leaves two sets of reports and a manual match at the end of the year. Charitable Events brings both together, selling tickets through the same donation forms and payment gateways you already run in Charitable. Why this is important:

  • 🎟️ Every ticket is a donation: Ticket sales run through the gateway you already use and count toward the campaign goal, with everything managed under Charitable » Events.
  • 📱 QR check-in from any phone: Each attendee gets their own QR code on the receipt, and volunteers scan at the door through a check-in link that needs no WordPress account.
  • 🧾 Receipts ready for tax time: Give each ticket type a fair market value, and Charitable puts the correct tax-deductible amount on every donor receipt.
  • 📋 Attendee details at checkout: Ask every guest for a meal choice, shirt size, or access needs, with a separate attendee record created for each ticket.
  • 🗓️ Blocks and calendars included: Three editor blocks plus Sugar Calendar and The Events Calendar support put your events where supporters already look.

🚀 Unleash AI Power in Charitable!

Your AI assistant can now build, edit, and manage your Charitable fundraising campaigns directly — just by asking. With Charitable Pro adding write support for the WordPress Abilities API, tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and Cursor can handle full administrative actions safely through MCP. Why this is important:

  • 🤖 Campaign creation in plain language: Prompt your assistant with a goal like “Set up a fundraiser for the shelter with a $5,000 goal”, and it builds a real draft campaign complete with suggested donation tiers.
  • 🎨 Instant donation form tweaks: Add custom fields, change button colors, or reorder elements without diving into form settings.
  • 📝 Offline gift logging: Tell your assistant about cash or check gifts, and it will match donor emails and record transactions into your history.
  • 🛡️ Safety and control by default: Write access stays strictly off until turned on in Charitable » Tools » AI MCP, keeping read-only reporting safe by default.
  • 📜 Full audit logging: Every change made by an AI assistant is tracked under Charitable » Tools » Logs, so you always know who (or what) updated your site.

Improvement Payments

💰 Accept Recurring Donations with Windcave and Charitable

A donor sets their gift up once on Windcave’s secure payment page, and Charitable bills every renewal after that on schedule. Why this is important:

🏦 Organizations banked in New Zealand or Australia: monthly giving on the gateway your bank already set you up with, with no second processor to onboard.
⛪ Churches taking regular tithes and offerings: congregants set their own schedule once, which is the simplest way to launch recurring church giving without a separate platform.
🌏 Groups with donors in several currencies: Windcave handles more than 20, so a supporter can give in the currency they actually hold.
📅 Operating funds rather than one-time campaigns: switch on Recurring Only mode and the one-off option disappears, so every gift to that campaign is a subscription.
🧾 Teams with no developer on staff: 3 sets of credentials pasted into a settings page, and no code anywhere.

automation update

⚡ Visual Automation Builder: Drag and Drop With No Code!

Charitable Automation Connect 2.3.0 introduces the Visual Automation Builder, a full-screen canvas that lays each automation out as a flow of connected cards: a trigger, optional conditions, and a list of actions that run in order.

🧩 Many actions, one trigger: Tag a donor, send an email, add a note, and fire a webhook from a single event, dragged into any order.

✉️ Act inside Charitable: New Send Email, Tag Donor, and Add Donor Note actions run with no external service required.

🔤 Merge tags: Personalize emails and notes with live fields like {first_name}, {total}, and {campaign_name}.

🔁 Apply to existing donors: Run Tag Donor and Add Donor Note against the donors you already have.

🖥️ Canvas or Simple: Switch views anytime, and automations built before 2.3.0 keep working unchanged.
