November is Stomach Cancer Awareness Month®
No Stomach For Cancer is actively involved in raising awareness and providing information about stomach cancer. In 2010 we successfully championed the first ever senate resolution designating November as Stomach Cancer Awareness Month. Stomach cancer organizations worldwide have come to recognize November, a month known for the pleasure of eating, as the ideal month to raise awareness about this deadly disease. The second leading cause of cancer death worldwide, almost one million people are diagnosed each year, and of these, approximately 800,000 will lose their lives.
November is Stomach Cancer Awareness Month however raising awareness about stomach cancer is important all year!
