Foundation joins Young Adult Alliance as inaugural member
The Sean Kimerling Foundation was chosen to join a select group of cancer organizations from across the country as part of a coalition committed to improving cancer outcomes for young adults between the ages of 15-40. The Young Adult Alliance was established after The National Cancer Institute and the Lance Armstrong Foundation conducted a Progress Review Group to study the needs of young adults with cancer and offer recommendations for a national agenda. The Young Adult Alliance is committed to:
- Promoting relevant research and the delivery of patient care;
- Generating awareness of the issues around young adult cancer;
- Advocating for young adults with cancer; and
- Advancing community based programs and services.

With the help of Knick great John Starks, the Sean Kimerling Foundation reached hundreds of high school students about the risks of testicular cancer.

Komen Breast Cancer Foundation on Friday May 13th. The former Knick All Star appeared at "Cancer Awareness Day" at Teaneck High School in New Jersey.

Marlins 3B Appears In SKTCF Public Service Announcement
Florida Marlins third baseman Mike Lowell is one of the best all around players in baseball. Now Lowell is lending his support to the Sean Kimerling Testicular Cancer Foundation.
Mike underwent successful testicular cancer surgery in March of 1999. Because of that first-hand experience, Mike knows the importance of getting the word out about TC and the need for regular self-exams. The public service announcement will appear on stations nationwide, including WPIX-TV in New York, where Sean was the Weekend Sports Anchor at the time of his death.
Thank you Mike, for helping to spread the word to men on the importance of regular checkups and early detection!
