Just like a wild ride through the trails of life, the journey through cancer calls for grit, guts, and a whole lot of gumption. The CRMC Cancer Care Team witnesses firsthand the incredible courage displayed by those facing this battle, and every sponsorship to Kaleidoscope 'Boots & Buckles' will have a significant impact on their lives.
Join us for a hoedown like no other, where the spirit of the Wild West meets the tenacity of cancer warriors. Dust off those boots, cinch up those buckles, and get ready for a night filled with compassion, camaraderie, and community spirit. Together, we'll lasso the challenges facing cancer patients, providing them with the support and encouragement they need to endure.
So, tip your hat to resilience, kick up some dust on the dance floor, and help us lasso hope for a brighter tomorrow.
With your sponsorship, every boot stomp provides hope.
Let's round 'em up and make a difference together!

Courage Cabinet
Cuyuna Regional Medical Center is dedicated to enhancing and furthering the availability of services to cancer patients in the Brainerd Lakes Area. The organization's vision is that all who face cancer can do so with dignity, confidence, and serenity. CRMC's Courage Cabinet helps cancer patients experience better health and well-being by limiting financial challenges.
A cancer diagnosis can wipe out a person not only physically and emotionally but also financially. Cancer can quickly impose an economic burden on the patient and his or her family, especially for those in lower income brackets. Surgery, other treatments, and medication costs can mount, even if a patient has insurance and is dealing only with co-payments. If treatment at a faraway facility is recommended, long-distance travel costs can also quickly escalate.
To provide some relief to cancer patients who are in treatment and undergoing chemotherapy or radiation, CRMC established its Courage Cabinet. The fund helps families with non-medical needs, such as gas cards/vouchers for travel to treatment, hotel, and meals, meals on wheels vouchers, or groceries. Courage Cabinet funds can also be used to pay for any medical bills, drugs, and non-covered medical equipment, supplies, and dressings if the patient or his/her family or insurance is unable to cover the costs.
Courage Cabinet is open to all CRMC cancer patients in CRMC's service area. The goal is to assist and support each cancer patient who may need financial assistance relating to social determinants. The limit of Courage Cabinet funds is up to $1,000 per patient, per year. Additional gas cards may be distributed at CRMC's discretion.
Donations are used to:
- Provide medications, equipment, travel assistance, and other items to patients experiencing medical issues
- Help pay for services for those who don't have insurance or are under-insured
Your gift to the CRMC Foundation allows us to do what we do every day - help patients!
