Pancreatic cancer is the fourth leading cause of cancer-related death and is projected to be the second leading cause of cancer deaths by 2020. Become an advocate for the pancreatic cancer community so that you can help change these dire statistics. We’ll help you learn how to build relationships with elected officials in your community and show you how to make an impact on federal policies affecting pancreatic cancer patients. Help us take our message to Washington and tell Congress to dedicate more funding to pancreatic cancer research so that we can double survival by 2020!

Mission Statement
The Pancreatic Cancer Action Network is a nationwide network of people dedicated to working together to advance research, support patients and create hope for those affected by pancreatic cancer.
Description
The Pancreatic Cancer Action Network is the only national organization creating hope in a comprehensive way through research, patient support, community outreach and advocacy for a cure. The organization raises money for direct private funding of research--and advocates for more aggressive federal research funding of medical breakthroughs in prevention, diagnosis and treatment of pancreatic cancer.
The Pancreatic Cancer Action Network fills the void of information and options by giving patients and caregivers reliable, personalized information they need to make informed decisions. We create a sense of hope and community so no one has to face pancreatic cancer alone. The organization helps support individuals and communities all across the country work together to raise awareness and funds to find a cure for pancreatic cancer.
