This will help us find a way to a cure Cancer!

On February 5th I attended The Modesto’s American Cancer Society’s Relay for Life Modesto Kick Off Party. What caught my attention most is the (CPS-3) program. I learned so much about where we have been, where we are and where we are going. Folks, this does concern you! Please read the fallowing below and PLEASE help us fight back against Cancer. Together, we can find a cure so that one day our Children’s children will not have to suffer from this terrible disease. (CPS-3) will help us tremendously.
If time is something your very short on today, please visit the link below for short video on (CPS-3).

Cancer Prevention Study-3 (CPS-3)
The American Cancer Society’s Department of Epidemiology and Surveillance Research is inviting men and women between the ages of 30 and 65 years who have no personal history of cancer to join a historic research study. The ultimate goal is to enroll 500,000 adults from various racial/ethnic backgrounds from across the U.S. The purpose of CPS-3 is to better understand the lifestyle, behavioral, environmental and genetic factors that cause or prevent cancer and to ultimately eliminate cancer as a major health problem for this and future generations.
Study enrollment will take place at Relay For Life events in your community.

Research today for a cancer-free tomorrow.

CPS-3 is a grassroots effort where local communities from across the country can support cancer research not just through fundraising efforts like Relay For Life, but also by participating actively in this historic research study.
For more information about CPS-3 and the Relay For Life events where enrollment will take place, read the documents below or email

Importance of CPS Studies
Past long-term American Cancer Society follow-up studies have played a major role in cancer prevention at the American Cancer Society, as well as in other national and international efforts.
