We are a student-led charity organization at Stephen F. Austin State University entitled Dancers Against Cancer (DAC), and we believe in our name and our purpose as being one part “Dancer” and two parts “Against Cancer.” We are a group of dancers and non-dancers who want to do everything possible to help cancer patients, raise awareness, and contribute to cancer research. Every semester, we choose a cancer organization and cancer patients to donate our funds. We are also focusing our efforts on Colon Cancer.
Every semester, DAC donates half our total to East Texas Cancer Alliance of Hope in Lufkin, TX. ETCAH is a local foundation that gives back to the East Texas community. They help people affected by cancer with financial assistance such as utilities, rent, gas, medical expenses, etc. Ashley Berry and her foundation have been such an inspiration to Dancers Against Cancer. We love giving back to her and her cause every semester! Please consider ETCAH when donating to DAC!
