Cape Fear Valley Health Foundation's Friends of the Cancer Center was organized in 1988 with the single purpose of providing the support that helps cancer patients and their families cope with the disease. Friends of the Cancer Center volunteers are ordinary people from all walks of life who have a strong interest in volunteering their time to work with cancer patients and their families. Many of them have been touched by cancer in some way. Some are cancer survivors; others have had a loved one with cancer and have been profoundly affected by the experience.
Friends of the Cancer Center helps provide hundreds of cancer patients and their families with emotional support, information resources, food supplements, free wigs and turbans and emergency needs funding. In addition, each year, Friends of the Cancer Center sponsors

Marketing strategies are plans designed to fill market needs and reach marketing objectives.[2]Plans and objectives are generally tested for measurable results. Commonly, marketing strategies are developed as multi-year plans, with a tactical plan detailing specific actions to be accomplished in the current year. Marketing strategies are dynamic and interactive. They are partially planned and partially unplanned. See strategy dynamics.Marketing strategy involves careful scanning of the internal and external environments.[4] Internal environmental factors include the marketing mix, plus performance analysis and strategic constraints.[5] External environmental factors include customer analysis, competitor analysis, target market analysis, as well as evaluation of any elements of the technological, economic, cultural or political/legal environment likely to impact success.[3][6] A key component of marketing strategy is often to keep marketing in line with a company's overarching mission statement.[7]Strategic plan can be constructed to identify business alternatives, establish challenging goals, determine the optimal marketing mix to attain these goals, and detail implementation.[3] A final step in developing a marketing strategy is to create a plan to monitor progress and a set of contingencies if problems arise in the implementation of the plan.
