How You Can Stand Up To Cancer
CBS is proud to join with our industry colleagues and "Stand Up To Cancer." In an unprecedented network partnership, CBS donateed one hour of commercial-free primetime for a nationally televised fundraiser to fight cancer on Sept. 5, 2008. The event raised more than $100 million but the effort is just beginning.
Cancer is a disease that doesn't discriminate, touching all families. Together, we unite to raise money to fund cutting edge treatment, and, through our joint efforts, help eradicate this deadly disease once and for al.
Stand Up To Cancer teams are a way for groups of people with a common interest or stake in the fight to rally as a collective force. Whether it's just you and your five best friends from college, or the entire Bay Area branch of your company, you can join together to make a huge difference.
Launch a personalized star in honor of someone who has been diagnosed with cancer, contact a local lawmaker or make a donation to the cancer organization of your choice. You can make a difference.
