Cause Marketing

Thank you for your interest in Cause Marketing with the American Cancer Society. You probably know that the American Cancer Society funds research to help find cures from cancer, but we actually do a lot more than that. Together with our millions of supporters, the Society is saving lives in the fight against the disease in a number of ways. We help people stay well by working to prevent cancer or detect it early, when it’s most treatable. We also help people get well by providing the resources and support they might need whenever they need it to get through their cancer experience. And we fight back against the disease by working with elected officials to pass laws that defeat cancer and by bringing communities together to join the fight.

The bottom line is that with your help, the American Cancer Society saves lives every day.
