TOGETHER, LET’S OUTSMART CANCER

Help us support more of the most promising research projects on all types of cancer across Canada.

100% Research since 1945

For over 75 years, the Cancer Research Society (CRS) is one of the only Canadian philanthropic organizations entirely dedicated to funding research on all types of cancer.

Since its inception, the CRS has supported thousands of researchers who have made significant advances in cancer prevention, detection, and treatment.

Research is the key

Through the generosity of thousands of donors and various partners across Canada, the CRS has distributed more than $388 million in research grants and scholarships over the past 75 years.

This demonstrates its impact on cancer research and, inevitably, on patients suffering from the disease and their families.
