In 2012, we, Team Draft, launched our inaugural Survivor at Every Stadium initiative on CNN during a nationally-televised prime time special focusing on lung cancer and our National Campaign to Change the Face of Lung Cancer.

Leveraging our connections with the NFL, its teams and players and our relationships with many of the top cancer centers in the country, As part of our National Campaign, this celebration of survivorship raises lung cancer awareness, gives hope to those battling the disease, and shines a light on the important work being done at cancer research and treatment centers around the country.

Team Draft’s goals are to create a unique experience for participating survivors and to raise awareness on a local, national, and international level by using each game and each survivor’s story to weave a broader narrative about the state of cancer and the hope that now exists for those battling the disease.

What a great experience!  The afternoon was so energizing to be able to share the day with over a hundred other fellow cancer survivors! To be able to cheer and laugh with a fellow survivor makes you feel more like a "normal" person again!!! It was an honor as a lung cancer survivor to be included in one of the first NFL events highlighting all cancers! I feel that we are on a new path of awareness !! The afternoon was perfect!
