RSO - Communities Against Cancer

Communities Against Cancer is an organization at UMass that hosts multiple fundraising events each year to support several organizations in their fight against cancer. Unfortunately, most of us have been impacted by cancer in some shape or form. Our group raises money and volunteers for organizations that support cancer research or provide resources for cancer survivors. It is our hope that someday, no one has to go through the pain and suffering that comes with battling cancer. 

We host fundraising events every semester including the Great American Smoke Out in the fall and Bar Crawl and Luminaria in the spring. The money we raise at our events is donated to national foundations such as the American Cancer Society, as well as local non-profits like Cancer House of Hope, Each Moment We're Alive, Tough Warrior Princess, and more.
