We all have been touched by cancer. With the many new insights into the genetic and molecular causes of cancer, doctors and scientists at UF and Shands are rapidly discovering and implementing improved methods for prevention, diagnosis and treatment. Opportunities for finding new cancer therapies over the next few years are limited only by the availability of funding needed to support the most promising research projects.

Our goal at the UF Shands Cancer Center is to facilitate and support cutting-edge cancer research, with a commitment to the same quality care and service to patients that we would want for our own family members. The UF Shands Cancer Center is part of the state’s only multi-hospital academic health system, recognized nationally as a leader in cancer treatment. Our physicians offer pioneering cancer treatments that are not available through many community-based facilities.

Your gift to the UF Shands Cancer Center directly supports cancer research and quality patient care. We will be happy to work with you to structure your gift so your particular interests are carried out. Your support is a powerful statement that you too take this life and death fight against cancer personally.

Thank you for partnering with us,
Your friends at the UF Shands Cancer Center
