About Us
OUR PURPOSE
To create more moments for Albertans facing cancer by inspiring our community to give to innovation in detection & care.
ALBERTANS HELPING ALBERTANS
Albertans helping Albertans is at the core of everything the Alberta Cancer Foundation does. Our very purpose comes from our desire to create more moments for all Albertans facing cancer, no matter where they live or the type of cancer they are facing. From the Canmore mountains to the canola fields in Lloydminster – we support leading edge treatment, care & research making a difference for cancer patients across the province.
As the fundraising partner for the 17 Alberta Health Services cancer centres, and the new Calgary Cancer Centre (alongside the University of Calgary), we make life better for Albertans facing cancer by supporting world-class research & patient care, right here in our own backyard.
WE DON'T DO IT ALONE
It takes a village. One that includes the generosity of donors who support innovation in cancer detection, treatment & care across the province. Such gifts support patients whose cancer journey has put them in a financial bind and others who have run out of all other treatment options and turning to a clinical trial as a last resort, a last hope. The list goes on & on. The impact: immeasurable.
In the simplest form, the Alberta Cancer Foundation is about Albertans helping Albertans. It’s ensuring we can provide the very best care, close to home so that every cancer patient focuses on what matters most: healing. But we need your support. Help us achieve our vision of a cancer-free future today
