Stand Up To Cancer began with nine women, each working to bring entertainment industry resources to bear in the fight against cancer.
Stand Up To Cancer launched in 2008 with an unprecedented television fundraising event that aired simultaneously on the ABC, CBS, and NBC television networks. SU2C subsequently produced “roadblock” telecasts, in 2010, 2012, 2014, 2016, 2018, 2021, and 2023, all featuring an array of stars from film, TV, sports, and journalism urging viewers to “stand up” and join the fight against cancer in memory of those we have lost to the disease and in solidarity with those living with it.
