5 ideas to raise lung cancer awareness in November
Help Lung Cancer Foundation of America raise awareness by trying one or more of the suggestions below.
1. Wear the ribbon
Pearl or white – that’s the color of the Lung Cancer Awareness ribbon.
LCFA invites you to be creative and make your own white ribbon. Or, if you’d prefer, help raise awareness and funds at the same time by purchasing a lung cancer awareness ribbon from Amazon, through their Amazon Smile program which donates a percentage of every purchase to Lung Cancer Foundation of America.
2. Share awareness facts on social.
In honor of Lung Cancer Awareness month, this November share important lung cancer information with friends and family.
