The American Cancer Society exists because the burden of cancer is unacceptably high. They are the only cancer organization that integrates advocacy, discovery, and direct patient support to measurably improve the lives of cancer patients and their families. Cancer affects everyone, but it doesn’t affect everyone equally. The American Cancer Society is working to ensure everyone has a fair and just opportunity to prevent, detect, treat, and survive cancer.
