Maine Cancer Foundation Welcomes You
You are not here by accident. People come to the Maine Cancer Foundation website because in some way, the disease of cancer has touched them.
You are here because cancer has somehow touched you. Perhaps because cancer has touched a co-worker. Perhaps a friend. Perhaps a spouse. Perhaps your child.
You come here with purpose. To learn more. To find hope. To do something more to prevent and someday cure this disease that makes us feel alone and helpless.
Maine Cancer Foundation exists with purpose. Together, we are not helpless. We combine our power as a community to raise funds. Funds that support the cancer research being done right here in Maine. Cancer research that every day, every minute, brings us closer to a time when cure is found.
The Maine Cancer Foundation sponsors fundraising events, such as Mary’s Walk, the Pink Tulip Project, Maine’s Tri for a Cure and the Breast Cancer for ME luncheon. Events where the power of many provides inspiration, community and purpose to provide funds for critical cancer research.
