We provide Health and Wellness support to Cancer Survivors by minimizing the financial burden of participating in a certified Clinical Exercise Program.

These Programs are designed to assist in improving the Survivor's overall quality of life.

Exercise is more powerful than many people realize. ๐Ÿ’œ

Research shows that cancer survivors who engage in regular physical activity have a 29% lower risk of death from any cause compared to those who are inactive.

Movement can help improve strength, reduce fatigue, support mental well-being, and enhance quality of life during and after treatment. Thatโ€™s why The Crocus Foundation is committed to helping survivors safely incorporate exercise into their recovery and wellness journey.

Every step, stretch, and workout matters.

Recovery is about more than exercise โ€” itโ€™s about community. ๐Ÿ’œ

Our small-group fitness classes give cancer survivors a supportive space to continue building strength, improving confidence, and connecting with others who truly understand what theyโ€™re experiencing.

Because healing is better when no one has to do it alone.

As we reflect on an incredible evening at our 3rd Annual Gala: A Night of Inspiration, we are filled with gratitude for the sponsors who helped make it possible. ๐Ÿ’œ

Your support extends far beyond a single evening. It helps provide exercise-based cancer rehabilitation, wellness services, education, and whole-person support for cancer survivors throughout our community.

Because of your generosity, individuals and families facing cancer have access to programs that help rebuild strength, confidence, and quality of life during and after treatment.

To our Gold, Silver, Bronze, and Community Sponsors, thank you for believing in our mission and investing in the future of cancer survivorship in our region. We are honored to have you as part of The Crocus Foundation family.

Together, we are creating a community where no survivor has to face cancer alone and where hope, healing, and support remain accessible to all who need them. โœจ

๐Ÿ’œ Every Move Matters ๐Ÿ’œ

Join us on June 20, 2026, as we move with purpose and support the fight against pancreatic cancer. In memory of Michael โ€œFajโ€ Oglesby, all proceeds and donations will benefit the Michael W. Oglesby Foundation, helping fund education, support, and early-detection research.

This year marks the 10th anniversary of the foundation, fundraiser, and race. We chose this foundation because it holds special meaning for our team. Our trainer Ashleyโ€™s grandfather is a survivor of pancreatic cancer, making this cause especially close to our hearts.
