SOCIETY DU CANCER
The Canadian Cancer Society is a national, community-
based organization of volunteers whose mission is the
eradication of cancer and the enhancement of the qual-
ity of life of people living with cancer.
Every time you contribute to the Canadian Cancer
Society, we put that money to work. In 1996, your
investment in helping the fight to beat cancer supports:

RESEARCH COUNTS!
Through our research associate, the National Cancer
Institute of Canada (NCIC), the Canadian Cancer
Society is the single greatest source of funds for cancer
research in Canada. This year, the Canadian Cancer
Society funded over 400 applications for research grants
and fellowships, totalling over 535 million across Canada
,vith over 517;5 million of that amount in Ontario.
CANCER INFORMATION SERVICE
1-888-939-3333
The Cancer Information Service provides information to
;ver 20,000 people each year) Call the toll free number.
Four questions mil be answered by someone who
understands how confusing the subject of cancer can be.
Cancer Research
Until the early 1930s, few people with cancer had any hope for a cure. During the
1930s, strides in research resulted in the successful recovery of 20% of patients
treated for cancer. Now, 50% of people treated for cancer are likely to recover
successfully. If we are to continue finding better methods of cancer prevention and
treatment, they will come through intensive research.
Approximately half the money raised by the Canadian Cancer Society in Ontario goes to the most
promising research projects across Canada. Project grants are determined through a stringent
peer review system by the Society's research affiliate - the National Cancer Institute of Canada
(NCIC) - the single largest funder of cancer research in the country.
Approximately $35 millie:i is awarded by the NCIC to cancer researchers across Canada each
year; researchers in Ontario receive half that amount. Projects that receive funding represent
the highest quality cancer research in Canada.
A large portion of the NCIC grants goes for "fundamental" research - to examine cells, oncogenes
and molecular structure that will provide answers about many types of cancer.
Cancer Prevention
For the past 20 years, there has been a growing recognition that we need to balance our
expectations of advances in treatment with a greater emphasis on preventive strategies. The
burden of cancer can be reduced in two ways - by preventing cancer from occurring at all and
by improving treatment and services for those who do develop the disease, as well as their
family and frietids.
International cancer studies suggest that at least two-thirds of cancers are preventable.
Lifestyle choices like these make t difference:
Be a nonsmoker ... choose smoke-free spaces ...
Help children to remain smoke-free
Each year, thousands of Canadians die from
tobacco -related illnesses, including cancer, heart
disease and stroke. The Canadian Cancer Society
doesn't want you to be another statistic.
Avoid the sun
Skin cancer is
almost always
curable if treated
early. Our
"Sunsense" message
is simple. "Slip!
Slap! Slop!" Slip on
a shirt ... Slap on a
hat ... Slop on some
sunscreen.
