The need for cancer prevention and early detection programs is more urgent now than ever.�� This year alone, more than 580,000 people will die from cancer.�� One-third of these cancers are preventable because they are linked to poor diet, lack of immunizations, physical activity and obesity and lifestyle choices such as smoking and over exposure to the sun.

That’s where the Prevent Cancer Foundation’s work comes in. ��The Prevent Cancer Foundation is the only nonprofit organization devoted solely to cancer prevention and early detection in the United States.��
