Pancreatic cancer has been on the rise. It affects thousands of patients and their families every day, and we need to continue to fight for them, now more than ever!
In honor of my Mom who fought so hard but lost her battle, we are again participating in PanCAN's Purple Stride, a fundraiser that helps provide life changing programs and services for pancreatic cancer patients and their families.
Every dollar you give means more patients can benefit from PanCAN's free, one-on-one support, personalized information, service and resources that can make a real difference in their lives and more research can be done to improve the current dismal statistics for the disease.
For the third year in the row, the five-year survival rate for pancreatic cancer has increased by 1%, according to the American Cancer Society's Cancer Facts & Figures 2024 Report. Now at 13%, this steady progress in survival means more hope for people diagnosed with this tough disease. You've helped drive this increase by supporting PanCAN's large-scale research initiatives, advocacy efforts and programs to help patients navigate their cancer journey. That momentum brings hope, but there's more work to be done.
Please make a gift of any size to get us one step closer to our fundraising goal and improving more patients' lives.
Thank you for your continued support!!
