Every dollar you give goes directly to work
Better Is Possible
Elizabeth believed better was possible — better treatments, better outcomes, better support for every person facing this disease. Every dollar you give moves that belief forward: one discovery closer to a breakthrough, one family with a place to stay, one patient who doesn't face this alone. This is how lung cancer gets beaten. Your gift is part of that.
The 80 / 20 Breakdown
80% funds cutting-edge lung cancer research at UPMC Hillman Cancer Center, with a focus on women and lung cancer.
20% supports patients and families directly — no-cost lodging through Family House, free parking at UPMC Hillman, and the lung cancer support group at Cancer Bridges.
The board of directors may also make grants to other nationally recognized lung cancer organizations or top tier research facilitates if they believe their funding from Libby’s Lungs will make a meaningful impact for the lung cancer community.
Since 2019, this community has raised over $400,000 for lung cancer research and patient support — and the work continues.
