Every day, 16 people in our community will hear the words, "you have cancer."

Did you know that the World Health Organization has determined that, if we applied the knowledge that we currently have, we could reduce the instances of cancer by 50% and we could cut the mortality rates in half - all within the next generation.

I have never in my life been inspired by statistics, but this declaration gives me hope and calls me to action. Let's work together to make this a reality in Eastern Ontario.

What do you think the Ottawa Regional Cancer Foundation should or could do to help?
