The New Mexico Cancer Center Foundation was started by Dr. Barbara McAneny and Dr. Clark Haskins, dedicated to supporting patients with grants to assist them with non-medical costs made more difficult life disrupting illnesses, such as transportation, rent, utility bills, car payments, etc. A central part of the NMCCF is the Gallery With A Cause, which brings beauty to the walls of NMCC with a new exhibit of several hundred original art works by local artists, and a public reception every three months. 40% of any art sold is a tax-deductible contribution to NMCCF.
