Cancer Crusaders educates the UW community about cancer through educational seminars, community
service and outreach projects conducted through partnerships with local cancer and health related
organizations. Our goal is to educate our members and the public about the disease, treatment and
prevention while also focusing on the perspectives of the patient, family and doctors in the fight against
cancer.


Our education component hosts seminars by research professors, doctors, patients and their
families, and members of cancer support organizations.
Our community service and outreach projects provide opportunities for students to volunteer
and earn experience by working with our community affiliates in the fight against cancer.
o We have organized donation drives for Seattle Children’s Hospital
Hematology/Oncology Department, bone marrow donor registration drives and
fundraisers for cancer research organizations.
Currently we are working with the Puget Sound Blood Center and the National Bone Marrow Donor
Registry Program to develop the new Cancer Crusaders Bone Marrow Team. By working with official
representatives we will help select a dedicated group of 12-16 students with the Puget Sound Blood
Center as recruitment volunteers to organize and conduct bone marrow donor registration drives at
various events on campus and in the community.
