Mesothelioma Awareness Day takes place every year on September 26. It was established in 2004 by the Mesothelioma Applied Research Foundation. The day is a reminder of the impact this disease has on people across the country and the world and is an opportunity to raise awareness surrounding mesothelioma.
The Mesothelioma Applied Research Foundation is dedicated to:
Advocating for federal funding of Mesothelioma research
Funding treatment research
Providing financial grants to support patients and their families through a Mesothelioma diagnosis.
