The American Cancer Society
History & Mission
Founded in 1913, the American Cancer Society is the nation’s largest community based voluntary health
organization and has played a role in virtually every groundbreaking cancer advance realized. With
volunteers as its backbone, the Society tackles all cancers on all fronts to eliminate cancer as a major
health problem.
Recent Accomplishments
In 2011, the number of Californians who received patient-related information and/or services rose six
percent from the prior year. Of the more than 57,000 recipients of, 10,423 were from the Greater Bay Area,
including 5,358 patients diagnosed within the past year.
Research
The American Cancer Society is the largest non-governmental source of cancer research funding in the
United States. Through the years, 46 American Cancer Society funded scientists have won the Nobel
Prize. Today in California, 129 research grants are utilizing more than $60 million from the American
Cancer Society.
Education
The American Cancer Society reaches out to millions in California each year with good news that most
cancer can be prevented by making healthy choices every day. We partner with cities, towns, community
groups, schools, faith organizations, corporations, and others to bring practical, cancer fighting information
to people nationwide.
Advocacy
The American Cancer Society advocates and grassroots volunteers give cancer a voice and face by
promoting effective cancer policies and legislation at the federal, state and local levels. Current advocacy
efforts include increasing federal funding for cancer research, and the regulation of tobacco products by the
FDA.
Patient Services
In 2011, more than 4,900 California residents reach out for help by calling our 24/7 cancer support line.
Nationwide, we answer 1.1 million calls annually. From the moment of diagnosis throughout the cancer
journey, the American Cancer Society provides a circle of care that offers patients comprehensive
information, day-to-day help and emotional support so they can make informed decisions for the highest
quality of life possible. In addition to many free programs and services, the American Cancer Society
maintains a database of available community resources to help patients through their cancer journey.
