Upstage Lung Cancer (ULC) is a non-profit based in Boston. Our organization is unique in using the performing arts to raise lung cancer awareness, fight the stigma associated with this disease, and fundraise for early detection research.

We’re hoping to have someone who’ll feel it adds meaning to their lives to join our efforts to make a difference in the course of lung cancer, and help change the lives of thousands of people with lung cancer.
