Donate NowHeather's Fight Became Our Mission.
Heather was a nurse. She spent 35 years caring for others. When she was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, she faced barriers at every turn—delayed treatment, limited access to clinical trials, and a healthcare system that didn't have answers.
We founded this charity to ensure no family faces what ours did. We fund pancreatic cancer research. We provide education and resources to empower patients. We support families with financial assistance. And we advocate for systemic change to improve care for everyone.
We believe patients deserve hope backed by evidence, compassion backed by action, and support that doesn't depend on where they live.
Meet Heather, and the Family Behind Heather Cutler Foundation.
This publication is in loving memory of the late Heather Cutler and her two-year battle with Pancreatic Cancer that brought her from the small province of Newfoundland, to the top minds in Pancreatic Cancer research at Johns Hopkins. Read first-hand accounts from Heather’s family.
