Take Steps Now To Quit or Sponsor A Loved One

There will be 160,000 Lung Cancer deaths this year alone. Change starts with one.

I give my word to make a genuine effort to stop smoking. I know it’s a challenge, but I will do my best. In quitting, I hope to improve my health and that of my loved ones. By taking this pledge now, I hope, too, to make an important statement in the fight against lung cancer. Mr. President, Mr. Speaker, it would be terrific if you joined me. Together, we could become leaders of a lung cancer free world. 

 

One of the most important ways to become a Leader of the Lung Cancer Free World is by reducing your tobacco use. Quitting smoking is hard, we know.

Smokers, Please consider donating the dollars you'd have spent on cigarettes to lung cancer research.

For non-smokers, consider sponsoring a quitter by contributing a small amount of money to fight lung cancer every day. You can save the life of somebody you love.
