The Noreen Fraser Foundation (NFF) is a national, non-profit, philanthropic organization based in Los Angeles. Its mission is to raise funds for breakthrough research that advances precision medicine for the prevention and treatment of women's cancers. Their hope is that the cancer will become a manageable disease that patients will live with and not die from, until it ceases to exist. The Noreen Fraser Foundation was founded in 2006 by producer Noreen Fraser. Since then, NFF has been actively involved in numerous successful fundraising campaigns, including Stand Up To Cancer and MenForWomenNow.com. ==Noreen’s Story== Noreen Fraser 〔http://www.zimbio.com/pictures/41Hob6KJXmb/Stand+Up+2+Cancer+Press+Conference/4c-8E45iTw9/Noreen+Fraser〕 was diagnosed with Stage IV breast cancer in 2001.〔http://www.wellsphere.com/breast-cancer-article/noreen-fraser-and-stand-up-to-cancer/568190〕 By 2003, her cancer had metastasized to her bones. After years of fighting, Noreen pledged to devote herself to raising money for focused research to find new techniques to prevent and fight cancer. She started the Noreen Fraser Foundation in 2006 and recruited other survivors and prominent figures in the medical, entertainment, and business industries to join the organization. In 2008, Noreen Fraser co-created and co-produced the network television special STAND UP TO CANCER (“which raised over $100 million for cancer research”).〔http://www.standup2cancer.org/en/elc.php〕 Prior to starting the Noreen Fraser Foundation, Noreen produced other award winning television shows including, ENTERTAINMENT TONIGHT, ABC’s HOME SHOW and The RICHARD SIMMONS SHOW. Recently, Noreen has started working on producing a documentary about cancer’s effects and developing a television project that will serve to raise awareness for women’s cancers. The Executive Director of the Noreen Fraser Foundation is Diana Chingos, MS, MFA. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Noreen Fraser Foundation」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
