Though prevention is important and NFCR educates the public on how to prevent cancer, they are also committed to finding a CURE for cancer, and their research is crucial to finding one. I believe research will cure cancer instead of just preventing it.

To control CANCER we need to develope 1) an effective approach to prevent cancer 2) very sensitive early detection tests and 3) new targeted cancer therapies. National Foundation for Cancer Research is a world leader in Cancer Research and funding scientists working in these 3 areas. Many of these discoveries are now transilated into more effective cancer treatments and diagnostic tests. That is why I donate to National Foundation for Cancer Research.

PLEASE DO NOT SUPPORT THIS CHARITY. Mr. Franklin Salisbury (President) & Mrs. Sujuan Ba (Chief Operating Officer) are HUSBAND and WIFE. Together they take home about $650,000 / year. Looting money from American public. IRS should investigate this charity.

It is difficult to learn from the charity itself how much goes to support cancer research.

Several of my family members and friends were impacted with cancer. The cancer incidence are going up. To control cancer we need to develop more effective cancer prevention approach and early detection tests . I supported few cancer charities in the past. After reviewing many of these cancer charities I came to the conclusion that NFCR is one of the leading charity that support these kind of research. That is why I decided to support NFCR and is the only cancer related charity I support.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
NFCR provided me with latest advancement in cancer research including tips for early detection of cancer.

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
NFCR should increase its visibility so that more people, like me, will know what NFCR is doing. Once people know the work NFCR is doing more support will come. Cancer research need more funding.

I have been involved with NFCR for many years helping to raise the awareness of individually designed cancer treatment protocols. Many people don't realize that cancer is an intensively personal disease that requires an individual approach to treatment that relates directly to your specific physical makeup. The most effective treatment plan is often not a "try everything and hope for the best" appraoch.
NFCR is aligned with leading scientific thinkers advocating individually crafted treatment protocols for cancer. They are dedicated to the proposition that your cancer is not identical to others; that attention to your individual needs will ultimately yield the most optimal outcomes possible. I have seen the remarkable results.
This is why I have dedicated time and effort to support NFCR in their quest to defeat cancer one person at a time. I am convinced that there's no better way to go.

Seeing the results of the individual approach to treatment over many years has convinced me that this aproach has opened the door to a more enlightened understanding of the mystery that is cancer.

increase the awareness that NFCR is making such customized treatments available to patients today. What they are doing is not simply theoretical or just a mass of laboratory research. It is happening now.

Professional and very courteous. I get lots of requests every week for donations, but this is the only cancer-charity group I support. "Robert" who answers the phone is always so caring and listens to me. He follows-up with sending me the information I asked for. Cancer is confusing and very complex. I believe research is the only we we will actually "cure" it.
The Great!

Give them a larger platform to tell their story. RESEARCH will cure cancer.

NFCR consistently has been visionary in funding the types of cutting edge research that have led to breakthroughs in cancer research. These are paradigm shifters, game-changers that make possible insights that never before were even on the horizon. NFCR was one of the first cancer research charities to support research at the molecular level to gain understanding in the role of oncogenes and DNA in tumors. The money spent by NFCR for research has gone a long, long way, with a ripple-effect far beyond the initial research findings. This is a fact which scientists know but not one which is easy to quantify for an obvious reason. It is hard to put a number on "quality" just as it is hard to put a number on "integrity." And NFCR has both---at the top of the scale.
The Great!

I would encourage continuation and refinement of the present course.
