For a nonprofit, every bit of space can help make room for something bigger: serving the community. This week’s Compass Business Spotlight features Loving Arms Cancer Outreach, an organization dedicated to bringing hope, practical assistance, and emotional support to individuals and families navigating cancer.
Through financial assistance, support groups, educational resources, cancer-related items, and connections to other community services, Loving Arms Cancer Outreach works to ease some of the burdens that can accompany a cancer diagnosis—helping patients and their families focus more of their energy on their health, well-being, and time together.
About Loving Arms Cancer Outreach
Loving Arms Cancer Outreach serves people with all types of cancer throughout its local community. Its mission centers around instilling hope and joy while providing education, resources, financial assistance, and both practical and emotional support throughout the cancer journey.
That support can take many forms. The organization helps with essential financial needs, offers support groups and educational resources, provides wigs and other cancer-related items, and connects people with additional services available throughout the community.
Behind each of those services are the supplies and resources needed to make them possible. For Loving Arms Cancer Outreach, that includes everything from wigs and wig-fitting supplies to donated medical equipment, client care items, event materials, outreach supplies, and other resources used throughout its programs.
Having those items available when someone needs them is important—but so is having enough room to keep them organized.
How Compass Self Storage Supports Loving Arms Cancer Outreach
With limited office space, Loving Arms Cancer Outreach uses Compass Self Storage in Marietta, Georgia, as an extension of its organization.
As Janet Graham, Executive Director of Loving Arms Cancer Outreach, shared: “Having a reliable self-storage space is incredibly valuable to Loving Arms Cancer Outreach. It gives us a safe and convenient place to store wigs, medical equipment, client supplies, and other items that directly support the people we serve.”
For the organization, self storage provides flexible space, improves organization, and makes it possible to manage these important resources away from its primary office.
Most importantly, the additional room helps the nonprofit make better use of the resources it already has. Janet stated: “As a nonprofit with limited office space, having additional storage allows us to stay organized and make the most of our resources while keeping important items readily available for our clients.”
Why Choose Compass Self Storage for Your Business
Loving Arms Cancer Outreach is a great example of how self storage can keep an organization stay ready to help when someone needs them. Its storage unit helps keep essential resources available without requiring the organization to dedicate more of its limited office space to storage. That means wigs can be ready for clients, medical equipment can be kept until it is needed, and outreach materials can remain organized for upcoming programs and events.
Their experience with Compass has also been about more than the space itself. When asked what they would tell another organization considering self storage, Janet shared: “Compass Self-Storage is easy to work with and has great customer service.”
Compass Self Storage is proud to support Loving Arms Cancer Outreach and other nonprofits, organizations, and businesses that use their space to make a difference in their communities. Find a Compass location near you and rent or reserve a unit today!
