lung cancer organizations

Many national lung cancer organizations exist, the three listed below are organizations that are very patient centric and focus on advocacy and research.

Go2 For LunG Cancer

GO2 for Lung Cancer is at the forefront of everything that’s happening in lung cancer. We’re the go-to for one-on-one assistance, supportive connections, treatment information, and finding the best care close to home. We’re the place to go to learn about the latest research and special initiatives that increase survivorship.

We’re the source for improving health policies and leading public awareness to shift this disease from one of stigma to one of hope. We are teachers, guides, advocates, and supporters. Confronting lung cancer starts here®

Lung Cancer research foundation (LCRF)

Lungevity

LUNGevity initiatives position us as thought leaders in the lung cancer advocacy community, providing programs and driving change for those with lung cancer today and in the future. While we fund primary research, we also conduct patient-focused research to better understand their unmet needs and convene multi-stakeholder meetings to streamline the research process and accelerate progress to patients.
