WSIS Prizes Contest 2019 Nominee

CancerQ


The First Truly Connected Cancer Platform

Description

Our mission @ CancerQ is to ensure no family has to face cancer alone - without access to the right tools, information, and knowledge.

Our CancerQ team has built & launched a digital dashboard that helps families facing or who have previously faced cancer get organized, learn, & connect with others. Your support helps us get our tool (at scale) into the hands of those who need it most - those fighting cancer today and tomorrow.

We make it easy and efficient to quickly access valuable, highly-curated resources when faced with cancer. Everything we do, every product we create, is designed to help save you time & energy, precious resources when facing cancer.
