Partnerships
The support of our partners and passionate advocates makes it possible for DetecTogether to save lives. Together, we empower people with early cancer detection education so they can recognize the early warning signs of cancer and know when and how to access life-saving healthcare.
As a team, we understand the importance of providing firefighters at high risk of cancer with the tools and knowledge they need to recognize the early signs of cancer and take action quickly so they can stay on the job they love. That’s why we’re committed to raising awareness and educating firefighters about their power in detecting cancer early. Response time to cancer matters, too.
Together, we can make a difference and ensure that our firefighters have the resources they need to protect themselves from the devastating effects of cancer.
You’re a first responder. Not a last responder.
