No one should face pancreatic cancer alone.

Just months after recovering from Whipple surgery, Sheila Sky Kasselman founded Sky Foundation in her living room with a few close friends and a mission to make a difference. What began as small dinner gatherings grew into a movement of awareness, compassion, and connection, reaching an ever-widening circle of people. Sheila dedicated countless hours to speaking with patients and families, offering guidance, encouragement, and a helping hand through the challenges of a pancreatic cancer diagnosis.

Today, Sky Advocates carries Sheila's legacy forward, connecting patients and families with survivors, caregivers, and others who understand the journey firsthand. Through personal conversations, shared experiences, and compassionate support, we continue the tradition Sheila started: making sure no one has to navigate pancreatic cancer alone.
