Who We Are

Our Mission is to Save Lives, Celebrate Lives & Lead the Fight For a World Without Cancer.

What We Do

We work to achieving health equity by creating healthier communities, helping to shape a more effective health care delivery system, and empowering people to live a cancer-free life, or their best life with cancer.

Together, we're stronger than cancer.

Road to Recovery volunteer drivers give rides with reassurance to people facing cancer. 

The Relay for Life movement is the world's largest Peer-to Peer fundraising event to save lives from cancer.  Participants celebrate people who have been touched by cancer, remember loved ones lost and take action for life saving change.

Through Making Strides Against Breast Cancer, the American Cancer Society will continue to advocate for and meet the needs of breast cancer patients.  

Hope Lodge/Hotel Partners Program helps cancer patients when traveling some distance for treatment.  

Cancer Helpline 24/7: 800-227-2345 giving information, education and support.
