American Cancer Society Marks 100 Years of Saving Lives from Cancer
The American Cancer Society will mark its 100th birthday on May 22, 2013. The Society is the nation’s largest voluntary healthcare non-profit organization and the country’s largest private, not-for-profit investor in cancer research, contributing more than $3.8 billion. Nearly 14 million Americans who have had cancer and countless more who have avoided it will have the chance to celebrate a birthday this year thanks in part to the Society’s efforts.
