40 years of innovation and donor impact means more moments for Albertans facing cancer. More memories. More celebrations. More time.

Forty years of donor impact has helped transform cancer care in Alberta. In that time our donors have invested over $470 million into the cancer system through the Foundation. The results speak for themselves: earlier detection, more targeted treatments and better support for patients and their families. Now, Alberta has one of the lowest cancer mortality rates in Canada.

None of this would be possible without the support of our community of donors, researchers, health care providers, partners and patients. As we look to the future, we aren’t just imagining more moments — we’re helping create them. Together, we’re building the next chapter for cancer care in Alberta.

Behind every breakthrough is a story of donor impact.

Here are just a few ways you’re making a difference for Albertans facing cancer.
