LOCAL AREA SPOTLIGHT

The Relay For Life of Lawrence Township, Indiana pulled together to meet all of their mission delivery goals. Read more in this month’s local area spotlight.


OPPORTUNITIES AVAILABLE

Volunteers are the foundation of The American Cancer Society. Without their time and energy, ACS could not provide free resources for those facing cancer, change public health policy, or raise much-needed funding to support our causes.

They represent diverse backgrounds and ages, and provide the Society with the hope needed to achieve its mission to save lives, prevent cancer, and measurably improve the quality of life for those facing cancer.

As an ACS volunteer, you will be making a valuable difference in the fight against cancer. To learn about the volunteer opportunities near you, visit www.cancer.org/volunteers.


RESOURCE HIGHLIGHT

The American Cancer Society offers cancer patients a customized Personal Health Manager that is designed to help them organize, and make sense of their cancer diagnosis. Find out more in this month’s resource highlight.
