It’s Rare Cancer Day!

The big day is here – Rare Cancer Day! Launched in 2019 by the National Organization for Rare Disorders (NORD) and the NORD Rare Cancer Coalition, the goal of #RareCancerDay is to raise awareness of rare cancers and the need for greater research funding and patient support.

“Increasing awareness of rare cancer symptoms could lead to improvements in survival for individuals living with rare cancers. Members of the rare community, I urge you to tell your story, and together we can drive innovation to discover treatments and cures for rare cancers.”
– Peter L. Saltonstall, President and CEO of NORD
