As we enjoy the holidays and look forward to the new year, all of us at Stand Up To Cancer (SU2C) have one mission: we want to do more in 2024. And we are so grateful to you for joining us in this mission.
People facing a cancer diagnosis want more time: more time to see their kids, or grandkids grow up, more time to enjoy the holidays with their loved ones, and more time to live the full lives they deserve.
Because of your support, you have enabled us to continue to fund innovative research and treatments that bring hope and healing to cancer patients everywhere.
Wishing you a joyful holiday season, and a healthy, happy new year.

SU2C IN THE NEWS
Stand Up To Cancer recently announced three Research Teams focused on bringing new therapies to clinical trials for the treatment of gastroesophageal cancer (GEC). The Research Teams, a part of a Dream Team Collective supported by the Torrey Coast Foundation, will unite top researchers from 11 institutions to address critical problems in GEC prevention, diagnosis and treatment.
The Dream Team Collective aims to foster new and inclusive cancer research on the causes and treatments of GEC, mentor a new generation of scientists focused on GEC, bring new treatments to the clinic, and provide medical professionals with tools and materials to better advocate for GEC screening and treatment with their patients.
