The American Cancer Society is the nationwide community-based voluntary health organization dedicated to eliminating cancer as a major health problem by preventing cancer, saving lives and diminishing suffering from cancer, through research, education, advocacy and service.

The American Cancer Society is a volunteer-driven organization. Our volunteers save lives and fight for every birthday threatened by every cancer in every community. They raise funds to support crucial research, provide cancer patients rides to their lifesaving treatments and give one-on-one support to those facing a cancer diagnosis- and that's just the beginning.

If you want to help finish the fight against cancer, join the more than three million people who choose to volunteer for the American Cancer Society.
