ONE YEAR FOR CANCER,
Inc. provides
an avenue for
people from any
background to help
fight cancer.
OYFC
is a new organization
committed to fighting
cancer. Our goal
is to reduce the
time it is taking
to cure cancer
by utilizing the
resources of all
Americans. People
from every profession
are needed to cure
cancer. In order
to accomplish this,
we are looking
for corporate and
individual partners,
experts, consultants,
and funding to
assist our growth.
All
of us have been
affected by cancer.
Anyone who is passionate
about wanting this
disease stopped
can help. Passionate
people working
in all fields can
have an impact
on helping to find
a cure. Bankers,
engineers, scientists,
doctors, teachers,
contractors, artists,
politicians, architects,
cooks, philosophers,
accountants, social
workers, computer
programmers, entrepreneurs,
etc. - all have
the tools needed
to help find a
cure. All of us
have valuable resources
that are not being
adequately utilized
for this cause.
OYFC
is here to answer
the question “But
what can I do to
help?”
OYFC
is encouraging
all Americans to
spend one year
of their life working
directly for a
cancer fighting
organization.

OYFC
is an organization
focused on bringing
people together
to fight cancer.
We facilitate your
passion with job
opportunities available
within the cancer
industry. We will
act as a conduit
to connect your
time and abilities
with the cancer
fighting organization
that needs them.
Soon, as OYFC grows,
we will act as
a market maker
for fighting cancer,
creating new jobs,
and accelerating
the rate at which
cancer is cured.
If 200,000 people
working today can
cure cancer within
20 years, can 400,000
people cure it
in 10-15?
We
are looking for
corporations and
individuals to
help us get funding
and experts to
assist with our
growth.
