Cancer Fund Responds to Plight of Young People Without Insurance

President of the Cancer Society Yvonne Alexander is reporting that the majority of youth suffering from cancer do not have an insurance plan.

Alexander says a Cancer Care Fund run by the association continues to fill the medical finance gap for those patients. Alexander was speaking on a radio show hosted by the Bureau of Gender Affairs in observance of Cancer Awareness Month.

The pandemic has caused a blow to the Cancer Society’s fund-raising drive, including its major Cancer Walk.
