Mission Statement
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.
Description
The American Cancer Society DetermiNation program is a charity endurance training program where participants raise money to fight cancer while they train to run or walk a marathon or half marathon. With access to professional training, an unparalleled community of support, and inspiration every step of the way, the DetermiNation program will help athletes finish a full or half marathon while they raise funds for the Society. Their personal race victory will change their life, but the finish line will be just the beginning. Because their triumph also means a triumph over cancer - where every step you take and every mile you conquer will create a world with less cancer and more birthdays.
