Lung Cancer and Esophageal Cancer

The American Lung Association is saving lives by improving lung health and preventing lung disease. We were founded over 115 years ago by a group of volunteers dedicated to ending the lung health threat at the time: tuberculosis. With TB largely controlled in the United States, we have extended that mission to other respiratory diseases. And thanks to our donors, volunteers, program and event participants, and staff, we are America's trusted source for lung health education, lung disease research, support, programs, services and advocacy.

The Esophageal Cancer Education Foundation’s mission is to bring awareness and educate the public and medical community about this dreaded disease. To walk the journey with patients who have this disease. To financially support research projects that focus on the development of an early warning test for this disease. Click HERE to access.
