Coaches vs. Cancer, a collaboration between the National Association of Basketball Coaches and the American Cancer Society, exists to leverage the strength, community leadership and celebrity of our country’s basketball coaches to raise awareness and in turn, reduce cancer risk through education programs while raising funds for the fight against cancer.
Through the efforts of more than 500 basketball coaches and the nation’s largest voluntary health organization, more than 12 million dollars has been raised since 1994. The money raised provides prevention, research, education and advocacy services in more than 3,400 local communities – the communities where we live.
