Major Gifts

Orin and Charlene   Edson

Fighting cancer is not just the responsibility of researchers. It takes all of us.

Today there is a new opportunity to make a dramatic impact on cancer survival. The advent of new technologies that will improve detection and treatment of many cancers at early, curable stages will yield substantial improvements in the survival and quality of life for thousands of people each year.

Although the center receives federal and agency grants for much of its research, money is required for pilot studies, fellowships and to provide valuable education, community, and patient-family programs.
