Papanicolaou Corps for Cancer Research

As members of the Papanicolaou Corps for Cancer Research, we are committed to raising crucial funds enabling vital research programs at the University of Miami Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center.

Through the concerted efforts of the growing number of Pap Corps Units in South Florida, a broad range of fundraising activities occur year-round that support the Corps’ annual financial commitment to fund cancer research in our belief that…

Today’s Research – Brings Tomorrow’s Cure!
