Cancer information for everyone

Over the last week, there has been attention on the cancer information we provide for the trans community. For more than 80 years, the Canadian Cancer Society has been a trusted source of cancer information for people in Canada. We support all people with all cancers in communities across the country, regardless of age, race, language, education, geography, socio-economic status, gender identity or sexual orientation. We use medical terminology, while also providing cancer information using plain language and formats to meet people’s unique needs and help them navigate their questions about cancer risk. Clear, accessible cancer information for all is essential. Every person should have the information they need to make informed decisions about their health.

Help create a future without cancer

With support from readers like you, we can continue to make a meaningful impact for people affected by cancer.

We are determined to increase survival, stop cancer before it starts, and improve lives. But we can’t do it without you.

If everyone reading this gave just $5, we could achieve our goal this month to fund the most promising research, compassionate support and transformative advocacy. Please give today because every contribution counts. Thank you.
