Mission

The Ronnie James Dio Stand Up and Shout Cancer Fund is dedicated to supporting research and education that furthers early detection, prevention, and treatment of prostate, colon and stomach cancers. Our philosophy stems from the notion that "Knowledge Equals Power." To date we have raised over $2,000,000 and have donated to cancer charities, including $217,000 to the M.D. Anderson Cancer Center, and over $450,000 to the T.J. Martell Foundation/ Vanderbilt Hospital and to UCLA's School of Dentistry to support their ongoing research into early detection technologies and for the treatment and cure of prostate, colon and stomach cancers. We will continue to support organizations that are committed to cancer research and education.
