Find your community
Cancer may be the common denominator, but it is not the defining attribute. Mary’s Place offers a safe place for women to share experiences with others on a similar path.
Our Annual Appeal is one of the most important efforts of the year for Mary’s Place by the Sea. The funds raised allow us to welcome women with cancer into our home and provide them with restorative retreats, integrative services, counseling, nourishing meals, and a compassionate community — all at absolutely no cost. Your generosity ensures that every woman who needs us can find comfort, healing, and support.
This year’s appeal is in loving memory of to Marci Wishner, 1982-2025
Love notes from our guests
Mary’s Place by the Sea was a refuge. It's a place where you can retreat from the world and all the worries, cares and responsibilities. It's a place where I learned how to let others take care of me and where I learned how to take care of myself.
