Welcome to the Cancer Research Foundation
Welcome to the Cancer Research Foundation
The Cancer Research Foundation was established to draw attention to the need for cancer research, to provide useful information and resources, and to raise funds for top research facilities across the nation. We consciously support diverse and innovative centers in the expectation that each institute will find a different piece to the puzzle and that, together, will find a cure or cures to the over 200 types of cancer. This year, we are proud to support the innovative research programs at Mayo Clinic Cancer Center, Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, and UCSF Helen Diller Family Comprehensive Cancer Center.
“The aim of medicine is to prevent disease and prolong life; the ideal of medicine is to eliminate the need of a physician.” ~Dr. William J. Mayo

Similarly, our mission is… “to raise funds to support innovative cancer research centers focused on perfecting treatments, vaccines, and cures to the over 200 different types of cancer; and, ultimately, to become absolutely obsolete.”
Together, our recipients, make miracles a reality!

Supporting innovation and excellence in cancer research.
We were established to draw attention to the need for cancer research, to provide useful information and resources, and to raise funds for top research facilities across the nation. Each year we select
a group of research centers that have been recognized for excellence and are making innovative strides in cancer research toward treatments and cures. Our recipients for this year include…
MAYO CLINIC
The Mayo Clinic’s research is focused on developing new and better ways to predict, diagnose, treat and prevent a wide range of cancer. Its innovations span “research bench to bedside,” bringing laboratory discoveries to the care of patients.
MSKCC
One of the oldest private cancer center, Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center is devoted to patient care as well as to innovative research; making significant contributions to new and better therapies for the treatment of cancer.
ST. JUDE
St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital strives to advance cures for pediatric cancer through research and treatment. Consistent with its original vision, no child is denied treatment based on race, religion, or a family’s ability to pay.
UCSF
The UCSF Helen Diller Family Comprehensive Cancer Center is dedicated to: research into the causes and events of cancer; research leading to treatments; and research to improve the quality-of-life for those living with cancer.
“Out of difficulties grow miracles.”
“Out of difficulties grow miracles.”
Jean de la Bruyere stated it perfectly. Cancer may feel overwhelmingly difficult but dedicated researchers are taking steps toward more and more miracles everyday.
