About Us
Project Purple is a non-profit organization empowering the fight against pancreatic cancer. Our unwavering commitment is fueled by the pursuit of raising awareness, driving crucial research, and providing aid for patients who are battling this disease.
Since our founding in 2010, we’ve been leading the charge, pioneering advancements, and bringing hope to those affected by pancreatic cancer.
We understand the toll pancreatic cancer takes on individuals, families, and communities, and we remain committed to fighting this disease until we live in a world free from pancreatic cancer.
We invite you to learn more about our organization, mission, and values. Together, we can create a world without pancreatic cancer.
Project Purple has invested more than $3.5 million in research, establishing the world’s largest high-risk consortium for genetic mutations linked to pancreatic cancer and Nebraska’s first high-risk clinic for pancreatic cancer.
We’re also dedicated to alleviating the financial burden so patients can focus on their recovery. Our Patient Financial Aid program has helped over 1,300 families with daily living and medical expenses, providing over $1,000,000 in patient aid.
We have sent over 3,200 Blankets of Hope care packages to people fighting pancreatic cancer to keep them warm while showing our love and support.
