2010 Annual Report - PDF
2010 was a year marked by a conscious effort to maximize our impact in the community
by expanding our partnerships. With this philosophy in mind, we launched into seeking
new, effective working relationships and focusing on outcomes. Our partnerships
have involved survivors and caregivers, physicians and other health care professionals,
the community at large as well as industry and other NGOs. In total, we provided
services to more than 22,000 patients, an increase of 30 percent, and we reached
organizations in 30 countries with the Maximize Life Global Cancer Awareness Campaign,
our most successful campaign to date.
2009 Annual Report - PDF
This year we dedicated to activities aimed at eradicating the stigma of cancer.
Through a variety of initiatives under the Maximize Life motto, we promoted the
concept of maximizing life with cancer, emphasizing that cancer survivors can live
full lives and be productive members of society. After all, it is stigma which contributes
to delayed diagnosis and a lack of local resources for support, while access to
education, prevention and treatment are crucial for minimizing the looming global
cancer epidemic.
