What is the STAND UP TO CANCER Television event?
On September 10, 2010, Once again, Stand Up To Cancer is embracing the power of Hollywood for the biggest cancer-fighting campaign in the history of television. The second nationally-televised fundraising event will air on 12 networks and cable channels. A full roster of celebrities will entertain and inspire viewers, and provide updates on how patients are already benefiting from the SU2C Dream Teams' research. Mark your calendar and please tune in at 8pm/7pm Central, September 10 on ABC, CBS, NBC and FOX. If you did not see the first special, we hope that you will tune into this one. We are sure that you will be as moved as we are. Click here to learn more about this year's television event.
Last October at the Tour Championship in Hilton Head, SC, the Amateur Golf Tour dedicated the 2010 season to winning the fight against cancer. After losing a fellow director to cancer in 2009 (view story) and reflecting on how many of our Tour members’ and directors’ lives have been affected by cancer, we knew we had to try to make a difference. As a team, The Amateur Golf Tour and its members can stand up and help win the fight against cancer. We invite you to join our team, invite friends to join, and donate all you can to give others the chance to swing another day.
