We need leaders and supporters, like you, to boldly fund strategies that allow for innovative new programs and to continue to expand those that have been proven to save lives.

Our Annual Report
The American Cancer Society raises nearly all of our money through private individual donations, which helps to ensure our independence. We encourage people to look at how effectively we deliver on our mission, in addition to how efficiently we operate. We are deeply committed to reporting to our “shareholders” – the millions of people who support us each year.
