Find Your Cause

ECU Health Cancer Care

We’ve used Foundation funds to increase early detection and screening, as well as survivorship and support programs — but we need to do more. Why? Because eastern North Carolina has a higher cancer mortality rate than the rest of the state — a statistic we can change with your help.
