About the Cancer Research Foundation

WHAT IS THE CANCER RESEARCH FOUNDATION?
The Cancer Research Foundation is a tax-exempt, public charity that was created to raise awareness and funds for the importance of and need for cancer research. The foundation is designed to minimize operating expenses and to donate 100% of all net proceeds to cancer research.

WHO DOES THE CANCER RESEARCH FOUNDATION HELP?
In 2010, your donations will benefit the innovative research programs at Mayo Clinic Cancer Center, Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, and UCSF Comprehensive Cancer Center. Each recipient is a renowned institute on the cutting edge of cancer research. 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. 
 
WHY SUPPORT CANCER RESEARCH?
Patient care and treatment is vitally important to the individuals (young and old) currently affected by cancer and, luckily, there are many wonderful organizations out there for just that purpose. However, the only way to keep another 13 million people from being affected by cancer over the next 10 years is to find cures.  Cures will only come from innovative research and study… this is where the Cancer Research Foundation is helping.

Currently, the federal government has been stretched thin between economic struggles and natural disasters and has been forced to curtail its medical research funding (with cancer research taking the largest cut among all areas of the National Institutes of Health); in addition, the philanthropy community, although extremely generous, often overlooks the colder face of research in favor of easing the heart wrenching pain of a victim. As cold as research may seem, it is the only road to a cure… and it desperately needs our help.

UCSF Comprehensive Cancer Center

Housed within one of the nation's top biomedical research universities, the UCSF Helen Diller Family Comprehensive Cancer Center consolidates the work of researchers and clinicians who are dedicated to three fundamental pursuits: laboratory research into the causes and events of cancer's progression; clinical research to translate new knowledge into viable treatments; and population research that can lead to prevention, early detection, and quality-of-life improvement for those living with cancer.

St. Jude Children's Research Hospital

St. Jude is unlike any other pediatric treatment and research facility... discoveries made here have completely changed how the world treats children with cancer and other catastrophic diseases. With research and patient care under one roof, St. Jude is where some of today's most gifted researchers are able to research cause and effect quickly.

The world's oldest and largest private cancer center, Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC) has devoted more than a century to patient care as well as to innovative research, making significant contributions to new and better therapies for the treatment of cancer.

Mayo Clinic Cancer Center

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. These discoveries help people not only at the Mayo Clinic but also around the world.

eBAY - MISSIONFISH

MissionFish is an innovative giving option sponsored by eBay.  Its allows you to donate just about anything to the Cancer Research Foundation, or participating non-profit.  You can choose to donate a portion of the proceeds from your eBay sale (or 100% of the proceeds) to the Cancer Research Foundation. Missionfish also allows you to make a direct financial donation to the Cancer Research Foundation via an eBay/PayPal account – without buying or selling anything.

CHARITY MALL

CharityMall.com is the Cancer Research Foundation's online shopping system.  It showcases 100s of merchants (i.e. Target, Home Depot, Sony, Gap, REI, and more) that have agreed to donate to cancer research every time an individual purchases something from their online store.  Simply start your shopping at CharityMall.com to make a difference...
