Join us in standing up to cancer and supporting those affected - donate, raise awareness, or show your support today!
Get ready to take a stand against cancer on Stand Up To Cancer Day, which takes place this year on the second Friday of September! This special day was founded in 2008 by a group of entertainment industry leaders with the goal of raising awareness and funds for cancer research. Since its inception, Stand Up To Cancer Day has become an international event, with people from all walks of life standing together in support of those affected by cancer. So join us this year and help make a difference – because we can all do our part to fight back against cancer!
Organizing a fundraiser is a great way to both raise money and awareness for cancer research. Consider hosting an event like a dinner or a walkathon to bring people together in support of the cause.
Look for local charity events, like 5Ks and marathons, that raise money for cancer research and participate in them. Even if you don't run, you can still volunteer to help out with registration, hand out water, or work the finish line.
Make a donation to Stand Up To Cancer directly or to another organization that is actively working on cancer research and treatment.
Share your own story of how cancer has affected your life or someone close to you. It can be a powerful way to inspire others to stand up and fight back against cancer.
Raise awareness about cancer and Stand Up To Cancer by sharing information on social media, talking to friends and family, or even starting your own blog or podcast.
Each year, millions of people around the world are affected by some form of cancer. From small children to elderly adults, cancer does not discriminate - it can strike anyone at any time. Stand Up To Cancer Day serves as a reminder that we must all take action in order to prevent and fight this terrible disease.
Raising awareness about the importance of early detection is key when it comes to battling cancer. Stand Up To Cancer Day helps to spread the word about the signs and symptoms of different types of cancers, which enables individuals to make informed decisions about their healthcare.
Finding new ways to combat cancer requires extensive research and trials. Stand Up To Cancer Day calls attention to the need for adequate funding for these projects, which could lead to life saving breakthroughs and treatments in the future.
