Your donations help support key advances in cancer prevention and care

Some of the most important advances in cancer prevention and care today have come from the innovative research being done at the BC Cancer Agency, supported by your donations to the BC Cancer Foundation. Breakthroughs at the Agency – like increasing survival rates by 50% for non-Hodgkin Lymphoma – have been made possible because of people wanting to give back after being touched in some way by cancer. We couldn’t do it without you.

The difference your donations make
The donations you make to the BC Cancer Foundation go directly to improving lives for people in British Columbia affected by cancer. Your donations pay for vital core funding – without which, scientists and researchers cannot apply for grants to continue their groundbreaking research.

An outstanding record
One of the reasons for the BC Cancer Agency’s outstanding record lies in the unique close collaboration between researcher and clinicians (doctors, technicians, nurses and other caregivers), known as translational research.
