11/16/19 My day started at 7AM with cups of coffee to help stay awake but the result are gratified.

A world without cancer cannot exist without more conscious "younited" acts to address health-equity. Saturday's Asian American Cancer Prevention Symposium is a collaboration among American Cancer Society, Pasadena city College, PCC Parent-Teacher-Student Association & Global Federation Of Chinese Businesswoman Greater Los Angeles rings together 100+ audiences including students, companies, clinical and public health leaders.

The American Cancer Society’s Mission is to save lives, celebrate lives, and lead the fight for a world without cancer. Today, almost 1,700 people in the United States will die of cancer. That adds up to more than 600,000 Americans dying of cancer this year alone. That's why, with our 1.5 millions supporters, we are taking action. Together we’re attacking cancer with every angle.
