Joan’s Legacy: Uniting Against Lung Cancer was founded in
2001 in memory of Joan Scarangello, a non-smoker who lost
her battle with lung cancer. Since the Foundation began
raising funds in 2003, it has awarded over $7 million in
research grants for a disease that will claim an estimated
160,000 lives in the U.S this year. Uniting Against Lung
Cancer is dedicated to funding innovative research that will
help patients win their battle with lung cancer and lead
healthy, cancer-free lives years after diagnosis.
