Description
The American Cancer Society is here every minute of every day and night to offer free information, programs, services, and community referrals to patients, survivors, and caregivers through every step of a cancer experience - so they can focus on getting well.
We help people take steps to prevent cancer or detect it at its earliest, most treatable stage.
The American Cancer Society funds groundbreaking research that helps us understand cancer's causes, determine how best to prevent it, and discover new ways to cure it.
We work with lawmakers to pass laws to defeat cancer and rally communities worldwide to join the fight.
