Take Action

Whether you make a donation, start a fundraiser, or take a stand for gender-neutral vaccination, it’s easy to join the effort to end anal cancer and HPV. We depend on supporters like you to help improve the lives of anal cancer thrivers and advance research.

Anal Cancer Foundation was started by three children who lost their mother to anal cancer. By joining with doctors, researchers, patients, funders and supporters, we can make great strides to improve the quality of life and treatment options for people living with cancer, and ultimately, end it.

Need More Inspiration?

Because of my misdiagnosis and delay in treatment, I have been doing what I can in my community to improve HPV/Anal Cancer awareness, prevention and treatment.  I think if each of us who has been touched by anal cancer does their part, we can make a difference.
