"The most important support I needed after my diagnosis was to simply talk to others who understood."
Doug Ulman, President & CEO
Lance Armstrong Foundation
3-Time Cancer Survivor
Founder of Ulman Cancer Fund for Young Adults
"Imerman Angels provides in exceedingly measurable form one of the most vital yet sorely lacking support infrastructures throughout the young adult survivorship community; the need for immediate peer support. Through education and collaboration they exemplify the notion that the young adult social movement is a voice that will be ignored no longer."
Matthew Zachary, Founder & CEO
I’m Too Young For This! Cancer Foundation
12-Year Young Adult Survivor
"When I learned about Imerman Angels, I thought that my STAR Program patients, who are all adult survivors of childhood cancer could really contribute to their cause. It offers them a unique opportunity to "give back" to patients who are facing the same difficulties they faced. I am so glad to hear that many of my patients did get involved with this great organization."
Karen Kinahan, Clinical Nurse Specialist
