The Scott Hamilton CARES Foundation (CARES) is a not-for-profit 501 (c) 3 dedicated to changing the future of cancer care by funding advanced, innovative research that treats the cancer while sparing the patient. CARES, which stands for Cancer Alliance for Research, Education, and Survivorship, is creating a cancer network built on strong partnerships with leading institutions, cancer support groups, and esteemed researchers to improve the quality of life and provide better outcomes for those living with cancer.
CARES Founder Scott Hamilton, a figure skating icon and cancer survivor, has long been leading the charge to fund innovative cancer research. Known for his signature jaw-dropping backflip, Scott is inviting the world to join him on a mission to Turn Cancer upside Down™ by providing critical funds to expert researchers in immunotherapy. These treatments will not only save lives, but spare cancer patients the toxicity of traditional treatments, advancing survivorship and quality of life both during and after treatment.
Thanks to our dedicated community of supporters, CARES has provided funding to like-minded charities nationwide for research, cancer patient support services and cancer patient ancillary services. CARES, which stands for Cancer Alliance for Research, Education, and Survivorship, is creating a network built on strong partnerships with leading institutions, cancer organizations, and researchers from across the nation.
