About Coaches vs. Cancer
The Coaches vs. Cancer program is a nationwide collaboration between the American
Cancer Society and the National Association of Basketball Coaches. This initiative leverages
the personal experiences, community leadership, and professional excellence of coaches
nationwide to increase cancer awareness and promote healthy living through year-round
awareness efforts, fundraising activities, and advocacy programs. Since 1993, coaches have
raised more than $87 million for the American Cancer Society.
Background
Norm Stewart, former head coach of the University of
Missouri’s men’s basketball program, cancer survivor,
and member of the National Association of Basketball
Coaches, provided the vision and inspiration for the
Coaches vs. Cancer concept. He started the program
by challenging fans to pledge a dollar amount for every
three-point shot made by his team during the season.
The concept evolved into a nationwide effort uniting
coaches, fans, players, and communities across the
country to fight cancer.
