2 cause of death in the country. The organization was founded in 1913 by 10 physicians and five others as the American Society for the Control of Cancer. Now incorporated, ACS continues to further its mission through research, education, public policy involvement, community outreach and treatment services provided for millions of patients. Based on allocation of funds for the fiscal year ending August 2008, each of the association’s four main activities (research, prevention, patient support and detection/treatment) receives a relatively similar share of American Cancer Society’s annual revenue—specifically 15, 18, 26 and 14 percent, respectively. A fairly hefty 27 percent goes toward management expenses and fundraising activities—which means it is nowhere near as efficient an organization as the best-run nonprofits.” (Vault career intelligence, 2011) The Importance of the organization’s ethical values supporting your ethical values.
