The Cancer Research and Prevention Foundation is a cancer prevention health foundation whose mission is the prevention and early detection of cancer through scientific research and education. The Foundation focuses its energies and resources on those cancers — including lung, breast, prostate, colorectal, cervical, skin and testicular — that can be prevented through lifestyle changes or detection and treatment in their early stages.
