Icare helps raise money for cancer patients

international Cancer Alliance for Research and Education

icare.org is a non-profit, tax-exempt organization which improves survival rates of patients with cancer through innovative and scientific programs. We wish to hold many events beginning this Spring and summer for the upcoming year and to help raise funds through events at dinners and music shows and events for patients with cancer.

icare is a multinational, non-profit network of global cancer scientists, doctors and patients who work in collaboration to identify, evaluate, personalize and accelerate access to emerging therapeutic options or technologies. icare does this by creating personalized exploratory or investigative teams which begin locally with one patient, one doctor, and one researcher. As global participants join the icare network these investigative teams allow individual patients and their local doctors to participate in real time, personalized academic research projects are driven solely by patient needs and are not limited by institutional and national boundaries.

We hope to let our audience and volunteers know when our first event will be held and will need community help to achieve our cancer goals and to help all members of the community and beyond.
