A Word From Our Founder

Cancer and heart disease are the number one killers of Americans today. According to the American Cancer Society, Texas is the fourth highest state in the number of new cases of cancer diagnosed each year. With more and more Americans working without health insurance, more and more patients’ immediate needs go unmet. Immediate needs are items or services necessary to sustain the healthy quality of the day-to-day lives of patients. The lack of the availability of that assistance is a serious problem in Texas.

The Reaching Out and Touching Lives organization, founded in 1999, seeks to meet the immediate needs of individuals and their families suffering from cancer and heart-related terminal illness.

Last year, because of the generous support of patrons and the community, we were able to assist 150 individuals and families.

We, the ROTL Volunteer Staff and Board of Directors, thank you for your continued support, which allows us to continue to help and to bless others.

May God Bless You,

Darlene Scott
Founder
