This Thursday is World Pancreatic Cancer Day, a global day of action and awareness.  A call-to-action and a unique opportunity to shine a light on this disease.

With the passing of the beloved Alex Trebek, there is renewed attention focused on this disease, as well as a desire to find more effective methods of detection, treatment, and ultimately, a cure.

The Hirshberg Foundation for Pancreatic Cancer Research has made it their generous and compassionate mission to empower patients to fight for their lives while giving researchers the funds to find a cure. Join them as they bring this disease to the forefront, educate families and friends, and celebrate courageous survivors.

Here’s a handful of ways to make a difference as we Celebrate, Participate & Dedicate on Thursday, and all month long!
