Description

ThyCa: Thyroid Cancer Survivors' Association, Inc. is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization (tax ID #52-2169434) of thyroid cancer survivors, family members, and health care professionals. We are dedicated to support, and educate thyroid cancer survivors, their families and friends. We also sponsor Thyroid Cancer Awareness Month, year-round awareness activities, and thyroid cancer research fundraising and research grants.

 

The 27th International Thyroid Cancer Survivors’ Conference, sponsored by ThyCa: Thyroid Cancer Survivors’ Association, Inc., will be held September 20-22, 2024 in Houston, Texas. The conference includes a fundraising dinner and auction, which is our largest fundraising event. It also includes a live auction, silent auction, and many raffles.

 

Funds from this function are awarded to research grants to find a cure for all thyroid cancers as well as to support and educate those whose life has been touched by thyroid cancer: people being tested; those newly diagnosed; long-term survivors; individuals with advanced disease; caregivers; family and friends.

The annual conference offers the latest research, advances in treatment and follow-up, issues for survivors and caregivers, and coping skills for well-being. This year, attendance is expected to exceed 600 and will include participants from nearly every state and a few foreign countries.

 

Any donation, large or small, is greatly appreciated!
