Our Core Mission: Serving Pancreatic Cancer Patients
At the heart of the “Power of Us” event lies a mission to accelerate progress towards early detection and effective treatment of pancreatic cancer. This ambition is driven by the alarming statistics associated with pancreatic adenocarcinoma, the most prevalent form of pancreatic cancer. With a relative average 5-year survival rate of only 12.5%, and a drastic drop to 3% for stage 4 diagnoses, the urgency for early detection and innovative treatments becomes clear.
A Unique Blend of Participants
What sets the “Power of Us” event apart is its inclusive approach, bringing together a diverse mix of individuals connected to the pancreatic cancer journey. This includes patients and their caregivers, medical researchers, oncology surgeons, clinical trial investigators, and more. Their shared experiences and insights create a powerful synergy, fostering an environment where knowledge is exchanged, and new strategies are forged.
Impactful Sessions and Discussions
A key feature of the event is the dedicated sessions among medical experts, patients, and caregivers. These sessions aim to foster a more rapid pace in achieving objectives like early detection, improving the quality of life for patients, and paving the way towards a cure for pancreas cancer. These include specialized talks on the details of pancreatic cancer, including KRAS, immunotherapy, and biomarkers for pancreatic cancer cells and pancreatic tumors. By focusing on patient outcomes and wellness, the event not only raises funds but also offers hope and inspiration to those battling the disease..
Educational and Fundraising Aspects
Apart from the discussions and networking opportunities, the event also encompasses various fundraising activities. These activities are crucial in supporting the foundation’s research initiatives and patient support programs. In addition, we provide critical support for research institutes, symposiums, and cancer centers dedicated to pancreatic cancer research. By participating, donors and sponsors play a direct role in making a difference in the lives of those affected by pancreatic cancer.
Saving And Extending Lives Through Early Detection Of Pancreas Cancer
In summary, the “Power of Us” Annual Event by the Seena Magowitz Foundation is more than just a fundraiser; it’s a gathering of hope, determination, and collective action against pancreatic cancer. While there are many types of cancer, pancreatic cancer research programs are lagging in funding and support, and early detection is key to increasing the survival rate. Through this event, our nonprofit foundation not only raises crucial funds but also shines a light on the importance of early detection, clinical trials and research, and community support in the battle against this formidable disease. The event’s success is a testament to what can be achieved when individuals unite for a common cause, truly embodying the power of us.
