Saving
Lives Every dollar
we raise makes a difference to people in your community whose lives are
touched by cancer. The American Cancer Society has contributed to almost every
major discovery in cancer research. Millions of lives have been saved
as a result, including people you may know. For those people and
countless others, the research the Society has funded is resulting in
better ways to prevent, detect, and treat cancer.
The American Cancer Society will also
continue to exert influence on all levels of government, advocating for
stronger policies and enacting legislation that will save lives and
conquer cancer.
.Empowering
People to Fight Back Against Cancer A cancer
survivor's recovery involves much more than medical treatments - it
takes hope to heal. By participating in the American
Cancer Society Relay For Life®, those
touched by cancer can feel empowered to fight back against this disease.
