Thanks to you, more people are overcoming cancer every day. Here’s how your gifts to the American Cancer Society help change and save lives:
$40 provides a home-away-from-home for a patient and her caregiver who have traveled far for treatment.
$75 gives 3 cancer patients a free lift to their medical appointments.
$250 enrolls 3 new participants in our Cancer Prevention Study-3, a landmark research project to uncover cancer-fighting knowledge.
$300 helps 7 people who’ve just been diagnosed with cancer get the 1-on-1 help they need through our Patient Navigator Program.
