Title
Cancer411.org - Comprehensive Cancer Clinical Trials Information
Description
Cancer 411.org is the result of the combined efforts of two organizations, The Rory Foundation, and The Joyce Foundation. The mission of Cancer 411 is to put cancer patients, their families and doctors in touch with the critical information they need as quickly as possible.
The Rory Foundation was formed in honor of Rory Leifer, who fought courageously against cancer for 19 years of her life - finally succumbing to it in 1996, after undergoing and trying chemotherapy and surgery, as well as alternative treatments. During her life, both Rory and her husband, Alfred B. Leifer, had an extremely difficult time finding comprehensive and easily-understandable statistical evaluations for various cancer treatments whether they be conventional, alternative or complementary methods.
Thus, it was Rory's determined, caring and hopeful vision that planted the seed to create for the public a non-profit foundation, which would provide much-needed information and resources to those with cancer and their families, as well as doctors and healthcare practitioners. Thereby, Al joined together with Marcia B. Leventhal, Ph.D. to form the Rory Foundation.
