Free to Breathe events & fundraising

Only research will cure lung cancer. Every dollar makes a difference in the fight against lung cancer, and you have the power to help change what it means to face a lung cancer diagnosis. YOU can make the next breakthrough possible as part of the Free to Breathe community!

Are you looking for ways to honor a loved one’s memory? You can find special information on memorial giving and fundraising here.

Free to Breathe Walks

Free to Breathe Walks bring people (like YOU!) together to raise awareness and funds for lung cancer research. Honor and support those who have been diagnosed with lung cancer, while celebrating hope for improving future lung cancer outcomes. Join one of our in-person events in the United States during Free to Breathe Walk Weekend Sept. 30 – Oct. 1, 2023 – or get a group together to walk in your community, any day you’d like.
