About
Connecting Champions asks young people with cancer, “What are you passionate about?” and provides a mentor in that field who can help them achieve their life goals. Our research-backed program helps individuals in their teens, 20s, and 30s (in treatment and survivorship) overcome overwhelming barriers from a cancer diagnosis. We pair them with a diverse network of mentors from over 200 career paths, giving them the resources they need to envision life beyond the disease.
