National Stand Up to Cancer Day
This Friday Sept. 9th is National Stand Up to Cancer Day. At South Tampa Smiles, we strongly promote meaningful dates that serve a purpose and have a positive impact our patients and community. We stress the value in spreading news and events concerning health, environment, and community issues. With 1600 people dying every day from cancer in the United States, this illness is sure to affect most people at some time in their lives. For this reason we would like to give this day the special attention and promotion it deserves.
Stand Up To Cancer, SU2C, was established in 2008 and has brought together more than 1,200 research scientists from leading institutions across the world. Their collaborative approach to cancer research is targeted towards ending cancer’s reign as a leading cause of death. Friday, Sept 9 at 8|7c, there will be a live commercial-free fundraising telecast including Hollywood favorites. Join in on this hour-long telecast to benefit groundbreaking cancer research. Visit their website at Su2Cshow.org for more information and make a donation to this important cause.
“SU2C’s mission, to ensure that all cancer patients become cancer survivors, is one that is very close to my heart.”
—Bradley Cooper, who lost his father, Charles Cooper, to lung cancer in 2011
