In response to these challenging statistics, MCF remains committed to reducing the burden of cancer through grant-based financial support and coalition building. With feedback from cancer stakeholders across the state and ongoing evaluation of MCF's own efforts, grantmaking is dedicated to the following three pillars: Cancer Prevention e best way to beat cancer is to prevent it from occurring. MCF supports statewide prevention efforts, focusing on reducing smoking, promoting healthy lifestyles, and providing access to health care that includes cancer prevention. Early Detection and Screening Finding cancer early, when it is most treatable and beatable, saves lives. MCF supports programs that improve and increase early detection and screening efforts. Improve Patient Outcomes Every Mainer deserves access to the best possible care, regardless of their income level or where they live. MCF supports programs to improve cancer patient support, provide patient navigation, and ensure access to transportation to vital cancer care. In addition, MCF serves as the backbone organization for Maine's Impact Cancer Network (MICN), Maine's statewide cancer coalition. MCF contributes funding, staffing and administrative support to keep Maine's cancer community connected and working together to achieve meaningful goals. Through targeted grant investments to organizations statewide, MCF is committed to stopping cancer before it starts, finding it early when it is treatable, and ensuring all Mainers have access to cancer care. A critical leader in the state with a bird's eye view of the cancer landscape locally and nationally, MCF recognizes that only through strong partnerships can true success be achieved.
