THE CATTLE BARONS BALL 2011 Where Does the Money Go? In the broadest sense, all the money we raise goes to eliminating cancer as a major health concern. The money raised is central to supporting our mission, which aims to focus our efforts in four main areas: research, education, advocacy, and service. Research. The American Cancer Society is the largest non-profit, non-governmental funder of cancer research in the United States, having spent over two billion dollars on cancer research since 1946. Education. We teach people how to avoid preventable cancers, when to get early detection tests, what treatment options exist and how to care for the cancer patient. We sponsor support groups, hold classes, seminars and forums, do outreach to health professionals who need to know the latest information on treatment and clinical trials, and we develop programs aimed at youth and adults on the advantages of healthy lifestyle choices (don t smoke, eat fruits and vegetables, exercise regularly, use sunscreen, follow early detection guidelines). Advocacy. Legislative advocacy at the federal, state, and local levels is another area where the American Cancer Society makes a difference. Advocacy is a force multiplier in the war against cancer. Changes in laws can impact millions of people, exponentially expanding and enhancing the American Cancer Society s mission to eliminate cancer as a major health problem. The public policy arena can be as powerful a tool against cancer as the lab. Service. We provide free, around-the-clock information and support by phone (800-ACS-2345) or computer () every day and night of the year. With upwards of 80,000 volunteers in Florida, we provide services directly to cancer patients and their families. We have two Hope Lodges in Florida, providing free lodging to patients who need to travel for treatment. We provide transportation for cancer patients to their doctor s appointments and treatments, help people cope with their illness through support groups, offer scholarships to young cancer survivors, make possible summer camps and recreational outings for children with cancer, and provide organized opportunities for the public to join the fight against cancer. Every dollar raised by the American Cancer Society is strategically invested in the fight against cancer. The Wall Street Journal has called us "the very model of an efficient charity" because only about 20.3 percent of our money goes toward fundraising and less than 4 percent goes toward overall management of the organization. We keep our administrative costs relatively low because we are a volunteer-led organization that is fortunate to have more than 1 million volunteers working on our behalf across the country.
