American Cancer Society

Why Donate to American Cancer Society?

The American Cancer Society recognizes the emergence of cryptocurrency and has witnessed the generosity of the crypto community since supporting this giving method in 2021, following the worst funding shortfall in our history as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Crypto donors who support our mission can help us fund ongoing critical efforts, such as:

–Research that leads to breakthroughs in preventing, detecting, and treating all types of cancers

–Advocacy efforts that aim to remove barriers to care, like closing the Medicaid coverage gap, so everyone has an affordable insurance option to access cancer screening and treatment

– Direct patient support, providing multiple support programs for people with cancer and their caregivers, including a home away from home at our Hope Lodge® communities when they need to travel for treatment and free access to cancer information via our 24/7 helpline



Support the Cancer Crypto Fund 

In 2021, we launched the first round of our Cancer Crypto Fund campaign with the goal of raising $1 million towards critical cancer research. In Spring 2022, we met this goal, proving that crypto philanthropy can have a real impact in the fight to end cancer in our lifetime. We are excited for what following rounds of the Cancer Crypto Fund will hold as we further engage and explore this exciting new realm of digital finance and commerce.
