Our goal is to increase awareness, decrease stigma and encourage early detection and treatment by increasing access to information about cancer. Awareness is an integral component in the early detection of the disease and early detection is a key element in the battle against cancer.WHAT WE DO:GFC was formed in 2011 as a US based 501(c)(3) non-profit organization to acts as an agent of simple and effective change to help reduce the global burden of cancer. We do this through creating, implementing and sustaining cancer awareness programs and cancer support groups in countries where access to information about cancer is critically lacking.HOW WE WORK:GFC partners with local organizations to connect them with established global cancer resources. We translate existing cancer awareness materials and create new brochures/pamphlets in the local language to promote cancer awareness, early detection and treatment options. We utilize our relationships with doctors, hospitals, cancer organizations and US companies with international offices to create and distribute country specific literature and to host cancer awareness seminars. We assist in creating new, and expanding upon existing cancer support groups using established, successful models and adapting them to fit the individual country.GFC has developed a dual track approach in each target country that consists of:Cancer support groups in hospitals and other health care facilities Cancer awareness programs delivered in the work environment
