About
Our Vision
A world where lives are saved because all people
have access to the resources needed
for the prevention, early diagnosis, and proper treatment of cancer.
Our Mission
To advocate for cancer patients by making connections, providing education, and guiding patient navigation to improve the quality and length of their life; with a focus on breast, cervical, and abdominal cancers.
Our Work
For the past 10 years, we have been focused on mitigating the obstacles women face in their breast and cervical cancer journeys by bridging the gap in cancer screening and treatment in Cali, Colombia. We have also worked to improve the quality of care through continued medical education and teleconferences for the medical community.
Our Future
PFCCAP is in a huge phase of growth as we are working to develop and launch our Abdominal Cancers Alliance throughout North America. We are a patient-driven organization that will provide accurate information and connections to patients and families so they will get the proper treatment in a timely manner.

The proper prevention, early diagnosis, and appropriate treatment of cancer SAVES LIVES.

Dedication. Passion. Expertise.
