The Hope Light Foundation
Communicate cancer awareness for all cancers in three states (IL, KY and MO) to educate the general public and their primary providers on cancer signs and symptoms to promote early cancer detection and survivorship with a primary focus on rural and medically underserved communities with healthcare professional shortages. Research cancer new case and death rate data along with demographic and socioeconomic information to determine where to target cancer outreach and awareness activities in communities with the greatest need for help in the fight against cancer. Maintain the Metropolis Lighthouse "Hope Light" that is dedicated to the fight against cancer with its symbolic purpose to guide people to the Hope Light website to obtain cancer signs and symptoms with the hope of detecting cancer early when it is easier to treat and survive.
