Mission Statement
The Ulman Cancer Fund for Young Adults changes lives by creating a community of support for young adults, and their loved ones, as they fight cancer and embrace survivorship.
About This Cause
We are a community of cancer fighters and survivors, their caregivers, and their loved ones. We understand. We care. We are here to help. We offer support to young adults fighting cancer by connecting, educating, and empowering. A leading voice in the young adult cancer movement, The Ulman Cancer Fund for Young Adults works at a grassroots level to support, educate, connect, and empower young adult cancer survivors. Since inception in 1997, we have been working tirelessly at both the community level and with our national partners to raise awareness of the young adult cancer issue, and to ensure all young adults and families impacted by cancer have a voice and the resources necessary to thrive. Our work is guided by our mission, vision, values and the priorities and goals set forth within our strategic plan. {mission} We changes lives by creating a community of support for young adults, and their loved ones, as they fight cancer and embrace survivorship. {our vision} We envision a world in which all young adults affected by cancer will have access to the resources necessary to thrive. {our values} The Ulman Cancer Fund’s work is built on the belief that every young adult diagnosed with cancer deserves hope and support. The values that guide our daily work with young adults — as well as our long-term organizational planning — include: Collaboration. Ongoing cooperation and idea and resource sharing will lead to the best possible outcomes for young adults living with cancer — and their families. Collaborators include medical providers, the patient advocate world, nonprofit organizations and private entities, as well as government agencies, community members, and individual patients and the institutions that care for them. Perseverance. Every obstacle can be overcome with determination, hard work, and resourcefulness. UCF’s organizational efforts serve as a model for young people facing the greatest challenge of their lives. Integrity. Every donation and dollar spent will be used in the most efficient and effective way. Compassion. All young adults living with cancer — and their loved ones — deserve to be treated with a concern and sensitivity that reflects the unique medical and emotional issues they face.
