Lung cancer claims the lives of more women than breast,uterine and cervical cancer combined. Funding for other cancers far outpaces that for lung cancer, yet all it takes for anyone to be at risk for lung cancer,is having lungs.
Purpose
At Libby's Lungs, our focus is on advancing research into the complexities of lung cancer, with a special emphasis on understanding its impact on women. Simultaneously, we're dedicated to underwriting vital support services for patients and their families, ensuring they have the resources and assistance needed to navigate their journey with resilience and hope.
Meet our Board
Discover the heart of our organization through our committed board of directors. Composed of volunteers—including patients, a care partner, and a medical professional—they play a pivotal role in shaping our decisions on fundraising events and patient support initiatives. Each member embodies Elizabeth’s vision, ensuring that patient perspectives remain central to our efforts.
“My goal through advocacy, education, or fundraising, is that each time a women hears those words, she will see a five-year survival rate that is better than the last women who received the diagnosis”
