Over 35 Years of Service!
League Against Cancer / Liga Contra el Cancer was founded in Miami in 1975 as a community-based, not-for-profit organization providing free medical care to needy Cancer patients. More than 350 Florida physicians, who are board-certified in their specialties, volunteer their services to the League Against Cancer. The dedication and support of volunteer physicians and on-going assistance of volunteers maintain administrative costs at about 12% of operational budgets.
State of Affairs
Since 1975, the League Against Cancer has simply outgrown its original clinic and has had to relocate to a different area in the same downtown neighborhood. The League moved in June of 2000 to a new facility at 2180 Southwest 12th Avenue named the Lourdes P. Aguila Oncology Center, recognizing its first General Coordinator. Twice as large as the previous clinic, it includes the Jorge Mas Canosa Chemotherapy Suite, furnished and equipped with a donation from Miami's Mas family and other donors.
