ABOUT US
A TIME Magazine Best 50 Website for 2007, the I'm Too Young For This! Cancer Foundation, i[2]y, is the nation's fastest growing survivor-led advocacy, support and research organization working exclusively on behalf of survivors and care providers under the age of 40. Our mission is to end isolation and improve quality of life for young adults affected by cancer. We do this by (1) serving as a global support community that provides 'one-stop' access to hard-to-find resources, peer support and social networks; (2) educating providers about the unique issues facing this population; (3) advocating on behalf of over 1 million young adult survivors to raise awareness of the 'cancer under 40' movement and drive change; (4) gaining a better understanding of the needs of young adult survivors; adnd (5) using music and the arts to connect and unite young adults, build community and make it hip to talk openly about their experiences.
