My Nonprofit Reviews

When I was diagnosed in 2008 with stage III NSCLC, I was in shock. My vision of LC was most likely not too far off from others; a little old man with gray hair sitting alone in the dark of a bar smoking a cigarette. I had the gray hair but not the rest. Following surgery of the same year, I was told I had at most two years to live...
LUNGevity has been a life force in more ways than one can write in a review. Trust though that of all the advocacy and non profits I've had the pleasure to know throughout my almost 60 years, they have no peer. Without a doubt throughout this organization, they are wired tight to support, guide, inform, and advocate for people of every walk of life afflicted. Amazing doesn't begin to describe the level of commitment, knowledge, and capability they bring to life every day making all of our lives a little more HOPEtastic in the process. Nothing short of extraordinary!

LUNGevity continues to set the standard for cancer advocacy organizations. Their level of professionalism and commitment to provide resources and patient support is unparalleled. I have had the extreme pleasure to work with them for the past two years during my cancer journey and no other organization comes close to the level of empathy, understanding, plus overall care and encouragement they provide on a continual basis.

Simply put, Amazing group of individuals working together towards a common cause and ultimately creating incredible results.

Last year I was introduced to Andrea Ferris and the LUNGevity organization. This was by far one of the best connections I've made in my life. And not because i'm a person with LC...It's because they're incredible at what they do in every facet of their mission. As an inoperable stage III NSCLC recipient, I was given a very short life expectancy. Upon receiving this prognosis, I asked my doctor what I should do next. He stated simply, "Go live your life'. That's all fine and dandy as far as quips go but I had no idea where to find or what level of support existed. I wanted to seek others who might be faced with a similar fate. As fate would have it, I was directed to LUNGevity to find this support. Across the board, from online chat support, medical updates, fund raising, awareness, stigma change, live events, and providing HOPE, I can find no flaw in this organization. The people who make up LUNGevity are smart, passionate, caring, giving and most of all, selfless individuals all committed to one goal - end death by lung cancer. I for one can think of few organizations I wish to support more...whether I had the disease or not. LUNGevity is simply amazing!
