Many of the advances in the fight against cancer would not have occurred without people with generous and giving hearts. Until cancer is eradicated, the search will continue for better ways to prevent, diagnose and treat cancer. If you or someone you love has been affected by cancer, there are many ways to honor them or help keep their memory alive and make a difference in the lives of others. To know you have been part of the solution in the fight against cancer is an immensely rewarding gift of love.
Here are some ideas on how you can help.
- There are a number of naming opportunities throughout the Cancer Institute including, but not limited to research funds, conference rooms, laboratories, waiting areas and patient rooms.
- There are giving plans that offer a tax advantage as well--such as:
- Charitable trust
- Bequest
- Life Insurance
- Appreciated Stocks
- Property and Gifts of Cash
- There are ways IRA and retirement plan dollars can be donated.
