Lake Chelan Community Hospital. The Chelan Chase donates a percentage of its proceeds to the Lake Chelan Community Hospital (LCCH) Mammography Department to provide for screening mammograms and the reading services for that mammogram at no personal cost to all individuals who are uninsured or under-insured.

Wellness Place. Proceeds are also allotted for Wellness Place, a nonprofit that provides support to cancer patients from NorthCentral Washington. Their services include free wigs, head coverings, nutritional supplements, compression glove/sleeve assistance, pre-scription assistance, lodging & travel assistance, fitness classes, and support groups. They strive to meet the needs of all cancer patients. If you are a cancer patient and have a need that is not currently being met, Wellness Place will work hard to accommodate your request.
