Bye CANCER inwykiwyk™ is a new and innovative movement to unite the younger generation against a disease that has affected too many lives.
INWYKIWYK inc.™ an acronym (It’s Not What You Know, It’s Who You Know) embodies the notion that, in life, we gain strength from the people we know and the relations that we establish around us. By throwing charity events we create an opportunity for people to connect and gain support through meeting other individuals experiencing the same fight against cancer.
Bye CANCER’s goal is to throw events all over North America to give young adults who have, in any way, been affected by the disease, a completely unique bonding experience. Entrance to the event is in the form of a t-shirt, rather than a ticket, that reads “Bye CANCER” in different colors, representative of various cancer ribbons. Money raised goes directly to major cancer research facilities, including, thus far, Segal Cancer Center of the Jewish General Hospital, in Montreal, Canada, and UCLA’s Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center.
Bye Cancer’s efforts have not only raised considerable funds for research but have also provided an avenue for the younger generation to fight back against cancer in a fund and unique way.
