Life after cancer doesn’t come with a roadmap.

We help people move from surviving to thriving through story, music, and connection.

Join us June 13 in Atlanta for the Surviving to Thriving Open House.

Now We Thrive is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit helping people thrive after cancer.

Helping people move forward after cancer

We create experiences that help people reconnect with themselves, process what they’ve been through, and take meaningful steps forward.

After treatment ends, a new challenge begins

There is often strong support during cancer treatment. What comes next can feel far less clear.

Now We Thrive supports cancer survivors, caregivers, families, and communities rebuilding life after cancer.

Many survivors and families are left navigating:

  • Emotional weight

  • Identity shifts

  • Relationship changes

  • A new way of living

  • Questions about purpose and what’s next

Thriving means:

  • Reconnecting with who you are

  • Building meaningful relationships

  • Finding joy again

  • Moving forward with intention

  • Having support around you

Now We Thrive exists to fill that gap.

Powered by Purposeful Partnerships

Now We Thrive is proud to partner with Global Media Studios to amplify stories of survivorship, resilience, and life after cancer.

Why We Started Now We Thrive

After surviving cancer at 30, Tom Willner saw how difficult life after treatment can be.

What helped him move forward wasn’t just medical care — it was creativity, connection, purpose, and the support of others.

Now We Thrive was created to help people navigate life after cancer through storytelling, music, support programs, and community.

Because nobody should have to figure it out alone.
