LANCE ARMSTRONG WINS RACE --AGAINST CANCER

Congratulations, Lance, on winning your third Tour de France!

Did you know about the Lance Armstrong Foundation? By providing information and support, the Foundation helps patients adopt the Lance Armstrong attitude in the battle with cancer: "I am a survivor, not a victim." From the moment of his diagnosis, Lance took charge of his illness and chose a medical team to manage his treatment and recovery. Then, he wanted a way to help others manage and survive cancer -- so he created the Lance Armstrong Foundation. In the fight against cancer, the Lance Armstrong Foundation, a public charity, is focusing on three main areas: education and public awareness, support for all cancer survivors, and scientific research.
