The mission of the American Cancer Society is to save lives, celebrate lives, and lead the fight for a world without cancer. After the federal government, the ACS provides the most funding in the world for cancer research. The American Cancer Society also removes barriers to ensure there is equitable access to cancer care for all.
Here in the Northwest, our regional board is composed entirely of volunteers from a plethora of industries. Our mission is to mobilize our local community in the fight against cancer, deliver potentially lifesaving programs and services, and raise funds through signature events to keep ACS going strong. We advocate for health equity and work to address cancer-related disparities in our region. Together, we value one another as individuals with unique contributions to make to this mission, and we believe that embracing diversity and building an inclusive culture on our board – where everyone feels welcomed and respected – is what enables us to most effectively attack cancer from every angle.
