Accelerating Research for Every Cancer. Every Patient. Everywhere.^TM

If anything demonstrates that your donations and support make an impact, it’s the ever-increasing recovery and survival rates of patients with cancer around the world.

That’s right: Around the world.

Over the past year, your support has empowered a global network of patients, researchers, physicians, and advocates in their efforts to conquer cancer. In 2022 alone, through your support, Conquer Cancer awarded more than $12 million in funding to 400+ recipients both in the U.S. and internationally, enabling them to press forward in search of better treatments and cures. You made possible a wealth of lifesaving research—work that will have a widespread impact on patients with cancer for years to come. And you did so on a greater, more rapid scale than would otherwise be possible.

That’s what it means to accelerate cancer research—and it’s one of the most important ways we can help patients and their loved ones.

With your financial support, Conquer Cancer helps some of the world’s brightest researchers secure the time and resources they need to make lifesaving breakthroughs possible. Oncologists like Dr. Kouya Francine can help ensure children in even the most remote locations—like Baingo, Cameroon—can access lifesaving care. Dr. Melissa Lumish can provide increased treatment options for patients with advanced-stage rectal cancer. Best of all, they have these options today.

Here are 29.5 Million Reasons to Keep Pressing Forward to Accelerate Cancer Breakthroughs.

Despite so much progress, cancer remains a leading cause of death around the world, second only to cardiovascular disease. In the U.S. alone, we anticipate 1.9 million new cancer cases over the coming year. By 2040, the number of new cancer cases diagnosed globally each year is expected to rise to 29.5 million. Each of those lives is yet another reason for us to continue seeking cures and treatment with urgency and dedication. And, thanks to you, we can keep doing exactly that.

We’ve seen astounding advancements in cancer treatment and care with new breakthroughs and more lives saved each year. In this year’s report, we’ll introduce you to some of the people for whom your gifts made an impact in 2022. Thank you for supporting Conquer Cancer and our global community of patients, doctors, researchers, advocates, caregivers, and more.
