Shine A Light on Lung Cancer is the largest coordinated lung cancer awareness program in the United States. With November being Lung Cancer Awareness Month, the Crunch and Upstate Cancer Center are teaming up to raise awareness about the disease and funds for the Upstate Cancer Prevention & Early Detection Fund, which addresses breast, colorectal and lung cancer disparities in underserved communities in Onondaga County.

As part of the night, Upstate Cancer Center representatives will host an information table on the concourse with lung cancer screening and tobacco cessation information.

Upstate's cancer care has been honored nationally by the Commission on Cancer of the American College of Surgeons and is among a distinguished group of accredited cancer programs throughout the United States. The Upstate Cancer Center is located adjacent to Upstate University Hospital at 750 East Adams Street in Syracuse. Services are also provided in numerous locations, including the Patricia J.
