Our mission at the Jennifer Shull Rare Cancer Foundation is to advance awareness and understanding of rare cancers through education, fundraising, and scholarships, ultimately improving the quality of life for those affected.
The Jennifer Shull Rare Cancer Foundation is dedicated to raising awareness about rare cancer types. Here are four important areas of awareness we focus on:
Early detection is crucial for successful treatment of rare cancers. Many rare cancer types are difficult to diagnose and often misdiagnosed. We promote education and screening for early detection to improve survival rates and outcomes.
Research on rare cancer types is underfunded, leaving patients with limited treatment options. We invest in innovative research and collaborate with leading institutions to advance our understanding of rare cancer types and develop new treatments.
Patients and their families often feel isolated and alone when dealing with a rare cancer diagnosis. Our foundation provides emotional and financial support, connects patients with resources and the community, and advocates for their needs.
Many people are unaware of the existence and impact of rare cancers. We advocate for increased awareness, education, and funding for rare cancer research and treatment, in order to improve outcomes and support patients and families.
Your support matters! Help us in our mission to raise awareness and provide education on rare cancer types. Whether you choose to donate or volunteer, you’ll be making a valuable contribution towards improving the lives of those affected by these diseases.
