Testicular Cancer Awareness Foundation is compassionately dedicated to raising awareness and educating the general public about the most common form of cancer in men ages 15-44 and providing lifesaving valuable support for patients, survivors and caregivers. Our Mission? Awareness . . Support . . Survivorship We are a nonprofit compassionately dedicated to the fight against testicular cancer through awareness and outreach, promoting the importance of monthly self-exams for early detection, support and guidance to patients and families, providing a resource for the medical community, providing financial assistance to those in need and continuing to save lives. We stress the importance of early detection through the practice of monthly testicular self-exams (TSE), just as women are taught to detect early signs of breast cancer through monthly breast self-exams. We are fighting to make TSE part of health education classes taught at the middle school, high school, and college levels. We seek to reduce the great stigma and taboo associated with talking about testicular health; most teenagers and young men are embarrassed to openly talk about their bodies and the changes taking place. We do this simply by talking about testicular cancer, its impacts and how to recognize the signs through regular testicular self-exams. We assist patients in seeking the most effective treatments for testicular cancer that yield the best outcomes. Testicular cancer is not as common as many of the other cancers and as a result some medical facilities are inexperienced in the treatment of this disease and may be unaware of the most effective protocols. It is crucial when diagnosed with testicular cancer that the patient has access to the most reliable and expert care that yields the best treatment plans and outcomes resulting in lifesaving measures. We seek to reduce the financial burden of a testicular cancer diagnoses by empowering the patient with resource information for financial assistance through the use of online fundraising tools. We also provide limited funding to those in immediate financial need, including helping with gas, groceries and more. We provide an online private support group to help connect those who have been affected by this disease.
