Get Ugly This Holiday Season With the Annual Ugly Sweater Campaign for Cancer Research
Get the Best Winter Activities
All proceeds raised through the Ugly Sweater Campaign will go directly to funding SU2C’s groundbreaking research. SU2C enables collaboration among leading scientists and doctors in the cancer research community, focused on getting new therapies to patients quickly.
“We are excited to be launching an even ‘uglier’ campaign this year,” said Pam Williams of SU2C Council of Founders and Advisors. “With so many ways to sport your ugly sweaters in support of cancer research, this campaign is a fun and unique way to look ‘bad’ while doing good this holiday season.”
Participating kids and parents can help raise awareness for this fundraising effort by liking and sharing the swarm of ugly sweaters posted with the hashtag #uglysweater on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.
About Stand Up To Cancer
Stand Up To Cancer (SU2C) raises funds to accelerate the pace of research to get new therapies to patients quickly and save lives now. SU2C, a program of the Entertainment Industry Foundation (EIF), a 501 (c)(3) charitable organization, was established in 2008 by film and media leaders who utilize the industry’s resources to engage the public in supporting a new, collaborative model of cancer research, and to increase awareness about progress being made in the fight against the disease. As SU2C’s scientific partner, the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) and a Scientific Advisory Committee led by Nobel Laureate Phillip A. Sharp, Ph.D., conduct rigorous, competitive review processes to identify the best research proposals to recommend for funding, oversee grants administration, and provide expert review of research progress.
