Share Your Story
- Lending your voice to make a difference is powerful. Sharing your story makes statistics and data become real. It is what puts a human face to a disease. Cancer. Your story saves lives.

Meet with your elected official's office to talk with them about our priorities!
- Schedule a "Drop In" with your elected official in their local office. We know that not everybody will be able to make it to Austin, but the in district office is a critical piece to winning the fight against cancer. Meeting with your elected officials and their staff in district lets them know that they are being connected with - and have access to information - at all points in the state. If this is something that you are intrested in, please contact your Grassroots Manager!
