About the Lance Armstrong Foundation
At the Lance Armstrong Foundation, we fight for the more than 28 million people around the world living with cancer today. There can be – and should be – life after cancer for more people. That’s why we kick in at the moment of diagnosis, giving people the resources and support they need to fight cancer head-on. We find innovative ways to raise awareness, fund research and end the stigma about cancer that many survivors face. We connect people and communities to drive social change, and we call for state, national and world leaders to help fight this disease. Anyone, anywhere can join our fight against cancer. Join us at LIVESTRONG.org.
Through the LIVESTRONG blog, we will provide you with fresh news and information about all of these items and more. Over the next few months, the LIVESTRONG Blog also will follow Lance Armstrong around the world as he races to raise awareness for the global cancer movement. Subscribe to get updates or check back often to get an insider’s view of Lance’s global efforts in cycling and the cancer fight.
About the LIVESTRONG Global Cancer Campaign
Lance made the decision to return to cycling because he thrives on competition. For his Foundation, the competition is the global threat of cancer. Cancer is poised to become the world’s leading cause of death by 2012. The Global Cancer Campaign is a worldwide initiative uniting everyone from survivors like Lance to world leaders and policymakers who must commit to the effort to avoid a public health catastrophe. To put it simply, we’re going to build a global movement against cancer, and we’re going to win.
