Job description

Want to get involved with Imerman Angels? Our Mission:

To provide personalized peer connections that enable one-on-one support among cancer fighters, survivors and caregivers.


Imerman Angels was created on the belief that no one should have to face cancer alone and without the necessary support. Through our unique one-on-one matching process, Imerman Angels carefully partners anyone, any age, any gender, anywhere and any cancer type seeking support with someone just like them - a "Mentor Angel."  A Mentor Angel is a cancer survivor or caregiver who most importantly has faced the same type of cancer. It is this relationship that makes all the difference to a cancer fighter or caregiver.  


These one-on-one relationships give a cancer fighter or caregiver the chance to ask personal questions and get support from someone who has been there before. Mentor Angels can lend support and empathy and help cancer fighters and caregivers navigate the system, determine their options and create their own support systems. Frequently, caregivers experience feelings similar to those of the person facing cancer. Mentor Angels can relate while being sensitive to the experience and situation.


Our service is absolutely free and helps anyone touched by any type of cancer, at any cancer stage level, at any age, living anywhere in the world.
