EDUCATING PEOPLE ABOUT HOW THEY CAN PREVENT CANCER AND DETECT IT EARLY THROUGH HEALTHY LIFESTYLE CHOICES AND ROUTINE MEDICAL SCREENINGS. THE FOUNDATION HOLDS SEVERAL EDUCATIONAL CONFERENCES FOR PROFESSIONALS IN THE CANCER FIELD. WE EDUCATE THE PUBLIC ABOUT CANCER SCREENINGS AND CANCER PREVENTION THROUGH ONLINE RESOURCES, EASY-TO-UNDERSTAND MESSAGING ON OUR WEBSITE AND SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORMS, NATIONAL MEDIA, AND MORE. THE FOUNDATION'S GUIDE TO PREVENTING CANCER OUTLINES THE NINE CANCERS THE FOUNDATION FOCUSES ON (+ VIRUSES AND CANCER), AND INCLUDES SYMPTOMS, RISK FACTORS, WAYS TO REDUCE RISK, AND SCREENING METHODS.


RESEARCH. THE FOUNDATION FUNDS RESEARCHERS AND FELLOWSHIPS IN THE NATION'S MOST PRESTIGIOUS ACADEMIC MEDICAL CENTERS. THIS RESEARCH INCREASES INSIGHT INTO THESE DISEASES AND ALLOWS US TO BETTER UNDERSTAND HOW TO PREVENT CANCER OR DETECT IT EARLY, WHEN IT IS MORE LIKELY TO BE SUCCESSFULLY TREATED. THE FELLOWSHIPS ENABLE THE TRANSFER OF INFORMATION BETWEEN INSTITUTIONS AND COUNTRIES TO FACILITATE THE USE OF BEST PRACTICES IN THE FIELD.


OUTREACH. REACHING OUT TO COMMUNITIES THROUGH PROGRAMS THAT ALLOW US TO FUND GLOBALLY AND ACT LOCALLY. BY EMPOWERING THOSE WHO KNOW THEIR COMMUNITIES BEST, WE ARE ABLE TO LEND A HAND TO IMPLEMENT LIFESAVING CANCER PREVENTION AND EARLY DETECTION PROGRAMS THAT BENEFIT ALL POPULATIONS, ESPECIALLY THE MEDICALLY UNDERSERVED.
