3 ABOUT COACHES VS. CANCER THE COACHES VS. CANCER PROGRAM IS A NATIONWIDE COLLABORATION between the American Cancer Society and the National Association of Basketball Coaches. This initiative leverages the personal experiences, community leadership, and professional excellence of coaches nationwide to increase cancer awareness and promote healthy living through year-round awareness efforts, fundraising activities, and advocacy programs. Since 1993, coaches have raised nearly $100 million for the American Cancer Society. AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY QUICK FACTS OUR VISION IS A WORLD FREE FROM THE PAIN AND SUFFERING OF CANCER. OUR PURPOSE IS TO ACHIEVE IT. Whether it s providing emotional support, the latest cancer information, or a home away from home when treatment is far away, we re there when you need us 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. With an investment of more than $4.5 billion since 1946, and $150 million in 2015, the Society is the largest private, nonprofit source of cancer research funds in the United States. The success of the American Cancer Society research program is exemplified by the fact that 47 Society-funded researchers have gone on to win a Nobel Prize. With your support, we will save even more lives than ever before. Together, we are stronger than cancer.
