Description
The Impact Grants from the Prevent Cancer Foundation are designed to support innovative research and community projects that advance cancer prevention and early detection. The program specifically prioritizes initiatives targeting cancers lacking current U.S. guideline-recommended screening methods and projects led by rural organizations aiming to improve health outcomes. This grant aligns with the Foundation’s broader goal of reducing cancer deaths by 40% by 2035 through funding efforts that address critical gaps in screening and prevention.
Funded projects may include, but are not limited to:
- Research on novel screening or prevention strategies for understudied cancers
- Community-based interventions to increase access to cancer screening and education
- Programs addressing barriers in rural or underserved populations
- Initiatives integrating culturally tailored education and patient navigation
