15-40 Connection teaches people how to detect cancer early for one reason – to save lives. Its innovative 3 Steps Detect education helps individuals recognize early warning signs of cancer, know when to seek medical care and how to collaborate with medical professionals to receive the most effective care.
The support from this Gala, Auction & Golf Tournament allows 15-40 Connection to bring its educational programs to schools and workplaces and reach many thousands more through social media. Over the past year, your support helped 15-40 Connection reach individuals in 24 states.
We talked directly with news stations, podcasts, radio and print media…. and they featured the inspiring stories of our expanding network of Learn from Me cancer survivors. Stories like these teach. Real life experiences highlight the power of 15-40 Connection education.
Our social media followers continue to grow and we are teaching thousands more people every year. We are changing the way people think and talk about cancer. Early symptoms are being recognized and the power of the patient’s role in diagnosis and care is becoming transformative. We will not stop until all are able to benefit from the best medicine for cancer – early detection.
Your support and participation is key to saving lives. Please join us this June – let’s save more lives together this year!
Thank you! Sponsors:
