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

Pancreatic Cancer Action Network is the 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. 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. We create a sense of hope and community so no one has to face pancreatic cancer alone.

The Pancreatic Cancer Action Network is the leading organization in the fight against pancreatic cancer - the country's deadliest major cancer. Only 6% of people diagnosed with the disease live 5yrs past their diagnosis. The San Diego group of volunteers is fantastic! They are a fun and motivated group that have grown the group's presence and results in San Diego tremendously over the past couple of years!
