Make a Donation to the C3 Lisa Fund

New researchers bring new ideas and energy to cancer research. However, as the pot of federal funding for research continues to decrease, new researchers face funding barriers which prevent them from moving their exciting ideas into research realities.

The C3 Lisa Fund was named after Lisa Dubow, a founder of C3.

This Fund provides a research grant to support researchers dedicated to developing treatments for patients with late stage colorectal cancer.  Lisa credited cutting edge research and clinical trials with helping her survive her diagnosis for nine years before her death in July of 2007.  100% of every donation to the Lisa Fund goes directly towards the research grant.  C3 works in conjunction with the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) to administer the grant and a grant has been awarded every year since its inception.
