FOR Giving Principles

Each FOR Society member has their own reasons for giving, but these are why we all give:

FOR Making A Real Impact

Some call it “not-for-profit” giving. We think of it as “for purpose”.

Each year, we will select and fund one research project that will make a real impact on how cancer is prevented, diagnosed and treated.

We all have our reasons for giving.

We’ve done the research in selecting this year’s project, but you also have the option to direct your donation to a different area at Roswell Park that is important to you. Just select ‘other’ when you make your online donation.

Cancer Genetics

This year, the Future of Roswell Society is supporting Roswell Park’s Cancer Genetic program by helping to establish a patient fund to support access to specialized genetic testing.

Is This FOR You?

Difference

Do you want to support a cause that can make a real difference for our community, possibly even for your own friends and family?

Support

Do you want to be more than “a donation” and have opportunities to see the impact of your support?

Participate

Has cancer affected you or a loved one in some way and want to be a part of a group that is doing something about it?

Well?!

If your brain screamed “Yes!” to any of these questions, we want you to join the Future of Roswell Society!
