What Makes Us Different

What sets Defeat Cancer with Acccolph apart is our foundation as a grassroots group of seasoned prostate cancer survivors dedicated to saving lives. Having walked this challenging path ourselves, we intimately understand the emotional and physical struggles that accompany it. Our focus is on fostering a supportive community that embraces everyone—men and their families—who have navigated the highs and lows of cancer treatment. We are also committed to combating the stigma associated with prostate cancer, ensuring that no one feels isolated or ashamed.
