The goal of the TCRF is to fund research that will ultimately lead to a cure for all cancers. TCRF has raised over $25 million in order to help achieve this goal and the mission is to raise millions more. The dollars TCRF grants have led to the approval of 15 new cancer drugs and the expansion of treatment options for cancer patients all over the world. TCRF has recently invested more than $2 million in talented, young physician scientists that have gone on to receive additional multi-year funding close to $30 million for leading edge research. TCRF supports research at renowned academic institutions, including UCLA, USC, UCSD, Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, Children's Hospital Los Angeles, City of Hope, and Wadsworth VA Los Angeles. The funds we award not only enable innovative research to be performed, but have ensured that researchers early in their careers continue to pursue this important work. Our goals are to continue with the issuance of grants to talented young research scientists until there are cures for cancer, from the most basic, to the most complex.

When cancer is diagnosed, the patient and entire family are affected. While medical treatment is the first step, this alone is not enough. Through the Spirit of Survival patient support program, TCRF offers an expanding range of unique and vanguard offerings for both the cancer patient and their loved ones. These include lectures, support groups, workshops, and classes that seek to integrate the psychological and physical healing. Our psychosocial program is a 100% free service to the cancer community. TCRF also offers a variety of educational programs for the community including a Foundation print Newsletter, eNewsletter, Social Media, Educational Events and Website. They are designed to open up dialogue, share formation and expand awareness of cancer related subject matter.

TCRF engages in community fundraising efforts in the Los Angeles area designed to raise funds in order to issue grants to young, cutting-edge physician scientists. TCRF utilizes community outreach to local organizations who desire a partnership with the TCRF, auxiliary organizations associated with the TCRF to plan and execute fundraisers for grant-making purposes, close associations with Oncology and Hematology Groups connected with Cedars-Sinai, and the support of individuals who have survived a cancer diagnosis and are thriving. These capabilities provides TCRF with the ability to not only raise sufficient funds to issue grants, while recognizing the importance of being good stewards with the funds delivered to TCRF.

In the last decade, TCRF has raised over $25 million. These dollars have led to the approval of 15 new cancer drugs and the expansion of treatment options for cancer patients all over the world. In line with its mission to advance cancer research on every level, TCRF awards annual grants to physician scientists conducting cutting edge bench-to-bedside research at world class medical research institutions in Southern California.
