How to create Mesothelioma Awareness in the masses?

Recently, there has been an increase in mesothelioma awareness throughout the United States. Non-profit organizations in particular are getting the word out to the masses about this deadly disease and the dangers of being exposed to asbestos. They hope to find a cure to pleural mesothelioma. Mesothelioma Applied Research Foundation (MARF)is leading the efforts in getting the word out and fighting for a cure to this disease that is linked to asbestos exposure.

Some events and programs that have been established to increase pleural mesothelioma awareness and the search for a cure are:

Mesothelioma Awareness DayInternational Mesothelioma ProgramInternational Symposium on Malignant Mesothelioma

Mesothelioma awareness programs are very helpful in spreading the word about mesothelioma. Some of the best and brightest minds come together for the same purpose every year to provide information and support for patients, their families, caregivers and advocates. They are available to answer questions and to provide information on new treatments, therapies, and clinical trials among others. Mesothelioma awareness days also unite mesothelioma sufferers and honor those affected by the cancer and those who have died from mesothelioma.

The Mesothelioma Applied Research Foundation (formerly known as MARF) is a non-profit organization that is dedicated to spreading the word about mesothelioma and fighting for a cure to this deadly disease. They also work with many cities and states throughout the country to recognize Mesothelioma Awareness Day by offering promotional materials to the local government who are willing to recognize this day. Mesothelioma Awareness Day is scheduled to take place annually on September 26. Several states have already made the event official. Others are awaiting legislative action before officially declaring Mesothelioma Awareness Day in their city or state.
