With over 90 employees working across 5 sites in B.C, we are one of the largest non-profit organizations in the province. We engage with over 100,000 donors and communities to inspire philanthropic investment in BC Cancer, and we partner with some of the world’s leading researchers, oncologists and care providers.

At the BC Cancer Foundation, we are a professional, passionate, and positive team who believe that we can help make a positive difference in the lives of all British Columbians and bring us closer to a world free of Cancer.

We are driven by a collective purpose to be a catalyst, powering world class innovation while supporting deeply personal cancer patient journeys.
