ABOUT US :Our organization awards ‘Life Interrupted Grants’ for young adults battling cancers to ease the financial stress of a cancer diagnosis. These grants allow individuals to concentrate on healing & not bills. AWF funds innovative global cancer research, awards oncofertilty and delivers HOPE comfort bags to oncology suites.
