How Your Support Can Make A Difference

Philanthropy makes a difference when it comes to funding cancer research because it supports preliminary investigations required to obtain financing from other sources, including drug companies and the National Cancer Institute.  These are times of both hope and apprehension in cancer research.  While scientists are making enormous progress to understand, prevent, and cure cancer, increasing constraints on federal funding are making less money available for research.  Without private philanthropy, many highly promising investigations will never be initiated or will be terminated prematurely. 

Your contribution today will support an extraordinary team of scientists and physicians dedicated to performing life-saving research.  Every dollar donated supports the great cause of controlling cancer by developing new tools for prevention, diagnostic and screening techniques, and treatment strategies.  Donations also enable the expansion of the Foundation’s outreach programs designed to enhance patient quality of life, encourage healthy lifestyles, and educate the public on cancer risk and prevention. Your support is vital in this scientific revolution that could help make cancer a disease of the past. 
The future holds enormous potential for even greater success in reducing cancer risk, incidence, and deaths.  We invite you to turn this potential into reality by helping us finance the war against cancer.  Please help the Foundation protect families from the anguish of losing a son, daughter, wife, husband, parent or friend to cancer.
