ARE YOU READY TO MOVE IT?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

April is Move-A-Thon Month! There’s still time to donate or participate!<\/p>\n

\"example<\/span><\/p>\n

This April, we invite you to move with us for our 2nd annual Head and Neck Cancer Move-A-Thon. Help us raise funds and awareness for head and neck cancers by setting a personal “move” goal.  Then ask your friends to support you and\/or let them know how important it is to be aware of the risks and symptoms of head and neck cancer.  Is there something you love to do? You don’t need to be an athlete to participate in our Move-a-Thon. Choose an activity you enjoy! It could be walking, swimming, riding a bike or a horse, knitting, singing, painting, driving, dancing, playing with your kids, walking the dog, pickleball, tennis, golfing, cooking – choose your own adventure!<\/p>\n

Lock arms with us to celebrate survivors, give hope to those presently in treatment, and honor those that we have lost. We need your help to advance the work with prevention, detection, treatment, and rehabilitation of oral, head, and neck cancer through public awareness, research, advocacy, and survivorship. All proceeds from this event will go to Head and Neck Cancer Alliance programs, including our Gas Card program, Screening program, Peer to Peer program, Ambassador program, and patient education and research.View our FAQs about the Move-A-Thon<\/a><\/p>\n
