About the host, Cancer Shakti Foundation:
– Cancer Shakti Foundation has a global mission to be a non-profit volunteer and donation-based organization dedicated to raising cancer awareness and supporting cancer patients and their families with an emphasis on people of color.
– Dr. Shefali Agarwal started this foundation as a result of her own painful experience of losing her beloved father to cancer. She knows first-hand the devastating effect this disease has on families. The mission she has set for Cancer Shakti Foundation, in the short term, is to raise funds for cancer research and to focus on the under-served which disproportionately is people of color.
– The board members of the foundation comprise well-known oncologists and leaders in the oncology field. Additionally, there is a diverse team of 12-14 volunteers assisting in realizing the mission.
