Empowering Individuals Through Education

We engage the public with educational opportunities at every one of our events. Partnering with some of Louisiana’s most prominent hospitals and cancer organizations, we are happy to provide cancer-related pamphlets and educational seminars.

Community Outreach

Our foundation collaborates with local hospitals, organizations, and healthcare providers to deliver impactful educational initiatives.

Partnerships for Impact

We forge strategic partnerships with leading research institutions, healthcare providers, and advocacy organizations to enhance our educational initiatives.

Cancer Prevention

A Lifestyle of Prevention

Lifestyle Modification

Our nonprofit cancer foundation emphasizes the importance of adopting a healthy lifestyle to prevent cancer.

Community Initiatives

We work with communities to implement prevention strategies that address specific local needs.

Research & Advocacy

We actively support cancer research to better understand the causes of cancer and develop preventive interventions. Our foundation partners with CAGLA to advocate for policies that promote cancer prevention, such as increased funding for research, and accessible screenings for all.

Early Detection

Methods for Early Detection

Screening Campaigns

We actively promote early detection through screening events, the “Be Well Bus” at St. Tammany Health Systems, and screenings through Mary Bird Perkins– providing free screenings for more than 20 years. We strategically partner with hospitals to help promote screenings for various types of cancers such as breast, cervical, prostate, colorectal, & skin.

Awareness of Warning Signs

Learning the warning signs are vital to early detection. Catching cancer early greatly increases the chances of successful treatment, and can radically improve outcomes.

Healthcare Provider Collaboration

By working with medical professionals, we advocate for the integration of cancer screenings into routine healthcare practices.

Over 20 years of funding support for free screenings in underserved areas in our community, & all of our fundraising events.
