Friends of the Cancer Research Center of Hawaii

Mission Statement

The mission of the Friends of the Cancer Research Center of Hawaii is to work to reduce cancer-related death and suffering by promoting community support for cancer research and education.

Organization Description

The Friends organization is a 501(c)3 non-profit corporation that raises funds and coordinates fund raising efforts in the community to support cancer research through the Cancer Research Center of Hawaii.

Cancer is a disease that touches all of us. Many of us know someone who is battling cancer right now, or someone who sadly, has fought this dreaded disease and lost. It is for them that the Friends are here. It is for them that we will continue to support the important work of the Cancer Research Center of Hawaii with financial help and other assistance.

The Friends respond to and fulfill the Cancer Research Center's need for private funds to supplement federal and state resources. Throughout the year friendship drives are conducted to give people like you the opportunity to play a vital role in the fight against cancer. Please support the Cancer Research Center of Hawaii by making a generous, tax-deductible contribution to the Friends now—Working together we will find the cure.
