Help the American Cancer Society Wipe Out Cancer – Volunteer for Cancer Prevention Study-3 in Howard Co.  & Catonsville: 252 appointments so far – on our way to “The Ulman 1,000”

 

We’re just a month away from Cancer Prevention Study-3 enrollment in Howard County and Catonsville  and already more than 250 have made appointments!   If you ever wanted to do something to honor a cancer survivor or the memory of a loved one who had cancer, enrolling in this study is a chance to pay it forward and help the American Cancer Society beat cancer in this century!   Participation is easy.  We need people ages 30 to 65 who have never had a cancer diagnosis and who are willing to make a long-term commitment to fill out lifestyle surveys that will be mailed to them every few years.

Howard Executive Ken Ulman – who is enrolling – has created the “The Ulman 1,000” – an incredible effort to recruit 1,000 cancer fighters for the study in Howard County.  To check your eligibility and sign up for an appointment, go to www.CPS3HowardCounty.org.  And spread the word - you can live anywhere in the U.S. and enroll at any location in the U.S.  Nationally, this study is recruiting 300,000 people.    In Maryland, we’re aiming for 4,900 people.
