Almost all of us have someone in our lives who has been hit with the sobering news that they have cancer. Maybe it’s a parent or other relative, or a close friend. In our lifetimes, about 40 percent of us will be diagnosed with some form of cancer, according to the American Cancer Society.

The good news is that experts are making big advances in detecting and treating all kinds of cancer. Because of philanthropy, Carolinas HealthCare System’s Levine Cancer Institute is expanding its resources to fight cancer and bring nationally-recognized expertise to communities throughout the Carolinas.

Donations fuel cancer research, awareness, early detection, and patient programs at Levine Cancer Institute.

In our experience, philanthropy is often the difference between good and excellent healthcare. Thank you for making a difference in the lives of patients with your gift.
