OPPORTUNITIES AVAILABLE

Making Strides Against Breast Cancer is our premier breast cancer event for raising funds and awareness to fight against the disease. Why not join us this year? The noncompetitive walk provides hope to people facing cancer, and your participation will support the American Cancer Society's lifesaving research, prevention, early detection, and support programs for thousands of patients and their families.

For more information on how you can join Making Strides to make breast cancer a thing of the past, visit cancer.org/makingstrides.


RESOURCE HIGHLIGHT

The American Cancer Society has launched a new web site on cancer.org for caregivers. It is designed to help them cope, keep them informed, and give them a way to connect with others. Find out more in this month’s resource highlight.
