Saved By the Scan Billboard
When lung cancer is caught before it spreads, the chance of survival dramatically increases. That’s why it’s vital that people - especially those with risk factors like a history of smoking - know to get screened regularly. Unfortunately, our research found that only 16 percent of eligible Americans got screened for lung cancer.
With the support of caring people like you, we’re on a mission to change that.
Our “Saved By the Scan” billboards are essential to ending lung disease. They have empowered over one million people to take control of their health by learning if they are eligible for a lung cancer screening test.
More than 20 million individuals each year come to us for FREE guidance and education. Our expertise goes well beyond helping those affected by lung cancer. We offer support to those living with COPD, asthma and more.
