Free for Nashville-area families in treatment

Comfort Baskets

A little comfort for the long days of treatment, from your community.  

A reminder that they're not alone

When someone you love is going through cancer treatment, it’s hard to know what to say or do. A Team Chad Comfort Basket says it for you: we’re with you.

No two baskets are alike. We build each one around the person receiving it, with practical, thoughtful things to make treatment days and the hours at home a little easier, so they can rest and spend time with family.

What's inside

When you request a basket, you tell us a little about your loved one, and we fill it with things picked just for them. A basket might include:

  • Something cozy: a soft, high-quality throw blanket, cozy socks, or a heatable Warmies plush
  • A night off from cooking: a DoorDash gift card
  • Treatment-day comforts: a soothing healing balm, ginger lozenges for an upset stomach, or a pillow for long infusions and car rides
  • Something just for them: a book about a favorite place or band, a family game for a night in, or a small keepsake

Every basket comes with a note from the Team Chad family.

How to request a basket

  1. Fill out the short request form. It takes about 3 minutes. Family members, friends, coworkers, and hospital social workers can all request a basket.
  2. Tell us about your loved one. What they love, who’s at home with them, what would make them smile. That’s how we make each basket personal.
  3. We’ll deliver it. We drop off or mail every basket within 2–3 weeks of your request.

Who can receive a basket: Anyone in the Nashville area who is going through cancer treatment. There’s no cost to you or your loved one.
