Their generosity, leadership, and collaboration inspire meaningful change and help ensure a healthier future for all.
Five Star Subaru Share the Love Event
The Friends of Bassett is honored to be chosen as one of Five Star Subaru's Hometown Charities for the 2025 Subaru Share the Love Event. From November 20, 2025, through January 2, 2026, for every new vehicle purchased or leased at Five Star Subaru in Oneonta, Subaru USA will donate $250 to the Bassett Cancer Institute Initiative. Five Star Subaru will match that gift for a total of $500.
These contributions will help expand access to life-saving cancer care close to home, supporting patients and families throughout our community. If you are in the market for a new vehicle, there's never been a better time to choose Subaru-not only will you drive home with a reliable vehicle, but your purchase will help strengthen and heal our community.
Hoffman Helping Hands
The Friends of Bassett is partnering with Hoffman Car Wash to raise funds for the expansion of the Bassett Cancer Institute at Fox Care Center. With the purchase of a Hoffman Car wash voucher 50% of all proceeds will directly benefit the cancer expansion project. You wash your car all season long, help us wash away barriers to cancer care!
Cancer is one of the most common chronic diseases in the United States. Due to the rising number of cancer patients in our rural region, more access is needed. An expansion of the Bassett Cancer Institute at Fox Care Center will increase access for cancer patients both in Oneonta and at the Bassett Medical Center location, and will provide a more comfortable, soothing cancer care environment for patients.
Mirabito Round Up
Round up at the pump! The Friends of Bassett has partnered with Mirabito Gas Stations during the month of March 2026. Customers filling up during this month will have the opportunity to "round-up" purchases in our region to donate to our network-wide School-Based Health Program.
Our School-Based Health Program has 22 sites in 18 school districts across four counties. The program ensures easy access within schools to high-quality healthcare services for students from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade. School-Based Health Program Services are available to all students regardless of income. More than 7,000 children are enrolled across the system.
