The American Cancer Society s Greater Cleveland Golf Classic provides your company the opportunity to join us as we save lives and create a world with more birthdays by helping you stay well, helping you get well, by finding cures and by fighting back. FINDING CURES The Society funds and conducts groundbreaking research that helps us understand cancer s causes, determine how best to prevent it and discover new ways to cure it. The Society is the largest private funder of cancer research. The Society has invested more than $3 billion in research since 1946. The Society has played a role in nearly every major cancer breakthrough in recent history, including confirming the link between smoking and cancer, developing drugs for leukemia and breast cancer, and proving mammography is an effective screening tool. HELPING YOU STAY WELL We help you take steps to prevent cancer or detect it at its earliest, most treatable stage. We help you quit smoking, get the right screening tests, and live healthy lifestyles. HELPING YOU GET WELL We re in your corner around the clock to guide you through every step of your cancer experience, by helping you make informed decisions about your care; helping you find moral support from others who have been there; and offering practical solutions to daily challenges including patient navigation and lodging. FIGHTING BACK A grassroots force of citizen-soldiers, we work with lawmakers to pass laws to defeat cancer and rally communities worldwide to join the fight. We fought to increase government funding for cancer research, establish smokefree policies, and improve access to affordable, quality health care. We also celebrate, remember, and fight back through community events such as Relay For Life and Making Strides Against Breast Cancer. JOINING FORCES WITH A TRUSTED BRAND The American Cancer Society is one of the most recognized names in the country, boasting 96% name recognition. The majority of Americans have a positive image of the American Cancer Society. Association with the American Cancer Society is a competitive advantage for your company, generating a more positive corporate image, improved customer loyalty, and increased sales potential.
