OHSU Give Day 2023 is over, but you can still support OHSU
Knight Cancer Institute


“I have abilities and I can use them. My future is there to be created, thanks to OHSU.

– Jack Hennessy

Creating a world without cancer

At the OHSU Knight Cancer Institute, a world-class team of doctors and scientists is working to end cancer in three ways: through early detection, immunotherapy and precision medicine.

That’s because when we find cancer earlier, people live longer. When we empower the immune system to attack cancer cells, we reduce the need for toxic therapies. And when we find a patient’s exact cancer mutation, we can use personalized treatments that offer more hope for a positive outcome.

This multifaceted approach has made the OHSU Knight Cancer Institute an international leader in research and cancer treatment. And it's only possible because of the commitment and generosity of people like you. 

Join OHSU in the mission to end cancer as we know it. Every gift makes a difference. Please make a gift today!

Thank You!
