For example our ResearcHERS program empowers women to fundraise in support of women-led cancer research, but it's more than just a fundraising campaign. ResearcHERS is a movement. A sisterhood of purpose determined to sustain women-led cancer research and recognize the female trailblazers in the field. #ChooseToChallenge #IWD2021 #AttackingCancer

March is #ColorectalCancer Awareness Month. American Cancer Society urges you to talk to your doctor about #ColorectalCancer screening. Don’t wait until you have symptoms. #ReturnToScreening #ACSKansasCity #AttackingCancer

Dr. Jane C. Wright was an oncology pioneer with a focus on chemotherapy. She was a recipient of the American Cancer Society project grant. Many of the drugs she identified with the potential to treat cancer are still used today. #BlackHistoryMonth #AttackingCancer #ACSKansasCity

During #NationalCancerPreventionMonth help reduce your risk of cancer by making healthy choices like eating right, staying active, and not smoking.

Beginning Nov. 1, Krucial Staffing pledged $1,000 per each The Kansas City Chiefs touchdown through the Super Bowl.

Thank you a thousand times (42 to be exact) to Krucial Staffing for partnering with ACS and our KC Hope Lodge!

While cancer screenings have been delayed because of COVID-19, cancer hasn’t stopped. Less preventative care now means later stage diagnoses and more preventable cancer deaths. We’re joining with the National Comprehensive Cancer Network and 74 other leading health organizations to encourage the prioritization of cancer screening: now is the time to resume preventative and prescribed care in coordination with your health care provider. #ACSKansasCity #AttackingCancer #BacktoScreening

November is Lung Cancer Awareness Month. Lung cancer kills more men and women each year in the U.S. than any other form of cancer. Nearly 80% of lung cancer deaths in the U.S. are thought to result from smoking, but it can be diagnosed in anyone. People who have never smoked or who have quit can get lung cancer, too.
