Vi støtter kreftforskning fordi vi vet det nytter. 3 av 4 overlever kreft i dag. Det er dobbelt så mange som for 50 år siden. Men vi er ikke i mål. Mer forskning må til. Sammen skaper vi håp. Støtt via gaveskjema eller vipps til 2277. Se også støttemuligheter for bedrifter.

Kentucky Daze – current affairs guest performance in February
