LUNGevity News
LUNGevity kicked off Lung Cancer Hope Month by sponsoring the third annual HOPE Summit. Over 120 participants—including 80 survivors, 30 caregivers and 10 medical professionals—gathered for educational sessions, inspirational speakers, and the opportunity to make once-in-a-lifetime connections with people across the country that have had a lung cancer diagnosis.
Survivors and their families inspire us every day. At
HOPE Summit we address the unmet needs of survivors and celebrate survivorship
and we work hard to inspire you! Learn more about HOPE Summit here.
Lung Cancer Hope Month will also be celebrated at the many events across the country this spring, uniting communities of survivors, caregivers, and families and friends of those impacted by lung cancer.
