Introducing Magnolia Purpose in Planning®

Advance care planning is not an easy topic to discuss, but thoughtful planning can ultimately reduce stress and worry for those living with cancer and their loved ones.

We are pleased to collaborate with Triage Cancer and Eisai Inc. to offer Magnolia Purpose in Planning, which helps people impacted by cancer connect to a library of planning resources for organizing personal affairs. Read our blog post or click the button below to visit the site.
Music Icon Patti LaBelle Reminds Adults: It’s Time to Get Screened for Cancer

LaBelle is appearing in television, digital and radio public service announcements (PSAs) as part of “Time to Screen,” a nationwide effort reminding adults to schedule regular screenings for breast, colorectal, cervical, prostate, lung and skin cancer.
