Chemo is hard.

We can’t change that. But we can make it a little softer.

The Chemo Box community

There are things nobody tells you about chemotherapy until you’re the one sitting in the chair. Your mouth might taste like metal. Your skin might become painfully dry. Your hands and feet might ache. You might be freezing one minute and sweating the next. And sometimes, the smallest comfort can feel enormous.

The Chemo Box was created by people who know that experience firsthand.

Every box is filled with practical, comforting things chosen specifically to help someone through treatment—delivered with love, and completely free.

What’s In The Box

Not swag. Not samples. Things you’ll actually use.

REQUEST A BOX

1 pair of Aleana Health cooling gloves + 1 pair of cooling socks
for cold therapy during treatment, which may help reduce the risk and severity of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy.*

1 bottle of Beaux Glow vaginal moisturizer
to help relieve vaginal dryness and discomfort.

1 plush lap blanket for staying warm and cozy
during long infusion sessions.

1 pink tumbler with straw
because staying hydrated during treatment matters.

1 bottle of Biotène Dry Mouth Oral Rinse
to help soothe and moisturize a dry, sensitive mouth.

1 pack of Gin Gins ginger chews
an easy-to-pack treat for moments of nausea or an unsettled stomach.

4 Liquid I.V. electrolyte packets
for a little extra hydration support.

1 coconut-based lip balm
for a little extra hydration support.

2 ultra-soft toothbrushes
gentle on sensitive teeth and gums.

2 soft sleep masks
for resting during infusions, at home, or whenever you need to shut the world out for a bit.

A letter from someone who cares
because sometimes the most important thing is knowing that you’re not alone.
