For twenty years, the only public foundation solely dedicated to funding research into these deadly cancers. For every $1 donated, $10 is generated in follow-on funding.

Turning Research into Action!
Learn more about our work in this brochure, which centers around a case study of Dr. Anisa Shaker, a physician-scientist from USC’s Keck School of Medicine. We funded her initial research into the connection between gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and esophageal cancer. This led to follow-on funding of $1.25 million from the NIH, which planted the seeds for an Esophageal Cancer Research Program at USC.
