Cancer Sucks
Every minute one American will die from cancer. That is one every 60 seconds. 1,500 Americans every day die from cancer. That is CRAZY. I don't know one person who has not been affected by cancer in one why or another. Right now I have a very strong, and AMAZING friend who is battling Stage IV breast cancer. My aunt is a cancer survivor. Who do you know who has been affected by cancer?
What can you do? Stand Up to Cancer.
SU2C is an organization working with the top experts in cancer research. Stand Up To Cancer is forging a new way to develop breakthroughs that will end cancer. They're putting together the best and the brightest minds in cancer research They are building interdisciplinary “Dream Teams” of scientists, clinicians, technicians and other experts, who will focus on a specific cancer problem. SU2C will track the teams' progress in real time, so that everyone who invests can see how their participation is creating real change. (Taken from the mission statement found here.)
