The Pearl Project, Inc.

Description

• The Pearl Project Inc. is a nonprofit corporation founded to address the negative stigma of lung cancer and advance research using a unique approach - wear pearls for lung cancer! Driven by online and social media, out goal is to create an educational awareness movement toward a world where no one is blamed for having cancer. The statistics are widely misunderstood and lung cancer can affect anyone. Why pearls? Lung cancer has many colors. One is clear because it's an invisible disease. Another color is pearl. Pearls are timeless, symbolic, and feminine. Worn across the chest, they are an iconic symbol to support a disease that deserves a voice and progress in the cancer community. The Pearl Project was inspired by Suzanne Corrales, who was diagnosed with lung cancer at 47 years old. A healthy, active, non smoker, her doctor did not think to screen her for lung cancer though she had symptoms of the disease. Lung cancer took a toll on her physically, emotionally, and spiritually. One challenge she did not expect, however, was the reaction when she shared her diagnosis. She did not smoke, but found herself defending her cancer. She then realized she was in a class of it's own, one of the deadliest cancers with the worst stigma. It's time to change the misconception that lung cancer is dirty, self inflicted, and always preventable. Join us in the movement empowering everyone affected. It's time. #PEARLPROJECT
