OUR MISSION

The mission of the Liddy Shriver Sarcoma Initiative is to improve the quality of life for people dealing with sarcoma. The Initiative increases public awareness of sarcoma, raises funds to award research grants, and provides support and timely information to sarcoma patients, their families, and medical professionals. These efforts are achieved through collaboration with numerous individuals and organizations that share a similar vision.

Everything that we do is accomplished by volunteers.

ABOUT DONATIONS:

The Liddy Shriver Sarcoma Initiative is a small, dedicated, all-volunteer organization. It is not a membership organization. Thus, there are no “chapters” or local meetings. Rather, people volunteer to help with one or more of our ongoing projects. We maintain an extremely low overhead of 2-3% per year. Thus, 97-98% of the funds we receive go directly to support sarcoma research and sarcoma families.

There are several ways to donate! Visit our Contribute Page for more information:
