What we'd like to talk about
I'd like to brainstorm ideas for developing a database for our grantees to use and possibly creating an outline or description of a database that they could use to hire their own database developer.
"Phone calls" are 1 hour, one-time calls with an organization. Learn the difference between volunteering on a Phone call and a Project here.

Our mission
The work of the Cancer Control department focuses on applying known interventions such as reducing tobacco use and increasing screening rates to save lives, as well as improving the quality of life for cancer patients and their families. The organizing principle of the Cancer Control program is directed at achieving health equity by creating healthier communities, helping to shape a more effective health care delivery system, and empowering people to live a cancer-free life, or their best life with cancer.
What we do
The American Cancer Society was created more than 100 years ago for one purpose – to liberate the world from the threat of cancer. We are advocates, researchers, volunteers, caregivers, survivors, patients, and donors. Together, we are a united force against all cancers. We are an organization of 2.5 million strong. From prevention to diagnosis, from treatment to recovery, we’re here every step of the way. Our vision is a world free from the pain and suffering of cancer. Our purpose is to achieve it.
Testimonials
Gabriel was pleasant to talk to, and he was interested in helping us, but the solution offered was not the best fit for our work, and we were not able to explore other options.
It was nice talking to both Erica and Hayley (although I wish I had better answers for their unique use-case. ) If you have follow-up questions, please don't hesitate. :-)
