And in honor National Lung Cancer Awareness Month this November, <a href=\"http:\/\/grantwatch.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">GrantWatch<\/a> is taking the time to recognize the importance of the fight against lung cancer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>GrantWatch has a category for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.grantwatch.com\/grants-filter.php?recipient_id%5B%5D=Select+All&amp;recipient_id%5B%5D=1&amp;recipient_id%5B%5D=2&amp;recipient_id%5B%5D=3&amp;category_id%5B%5D=14\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">health and medical<\/a> grants on its site, as well as one for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.grantwatch.com\/grants-filter.php?recipient_id%5B%5D=1&amp;recipient_id%5B%5D=2&amp;recipient_id%5B%5D=3&amp;category_id%5B%5D=29\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">research and evaluation<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The Fight Against Lung Cancer<\/strong> <\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the National Cancer Institute&#8217;s Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER), an estimated 235,760 patients will suffer from lung and bronchus cancer. The organization also notes that an estimated 131,880 patients will die of lung cancer in 2021. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Taking the time to talk about how people can lower their risks for this type of cancer is critical. According to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), nearly 9 out of 10 lung cancer diagnoses<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cdc.gov\/cancer\/dcpc\/resources\/features\/lungcancer\/index.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> <\/a>are caused by smoking cigarettes. Other risk factors include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Exposure to second hand smoke<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Family history of lung cancer<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Past treatment with radiation therapy to the breast or chest<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>As well as exposure to asbestos, chromium, nickel, arsenic, soot, or tar in the workplace<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Be it lung cancer or any other kind; cancer diagnoses impact millions of Americans every year. For this reason, funding critical research and treatment is essential. It is especially crucial to ensure that programs focused on prevention and education stay funded. Grants are a good way to fund these initiatives. For example, below are five grants currently available on GrantWatch for individuals and organizations helping in the fight against the disease through research and preventative measures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Four Grants that Go Toward Funding Cancer Research And Education<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Firstly, there are grants of up to $10,000, $20,000, and in-kind support\u00a0available to U.S. IHe&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.grantwatch.com\/grant\/172501\/grants-to-usa-ihes-to-end-the-use-of-tobacco-products-on-campuses.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">to end the use of tobacco products on college campuses<\/a>. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Grants to U.S. individual physicians for financial assistance <a href=\"https:\/\/www.grantwatch.com\/grant\/174547\/grants-to-usa-physicians-for-cancer-related-research.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">to conduct cancer-related research<\/a>.
