2022-2023 TASC State Service ProjectKick CancerAs the student leaders of TASC, we know our schools and communities are far from perfect. A prominent issue plaguing our communities is cancer. Most cancers spawn from preventable actions, including vaping, smoking, and unhealthy eating. TASC intends to bring accessible and effective information and projects to the forefront by giving cancer the boot. We plan to provide awareness, positive actions, and activities for students, teachers, parents, and community members. TASC challenges you to Kick Cancer by joining us in fighting the causes and the effects of cancer. It is important to recognize that our actions and choices can either benefit or harm ourselves and our world every single day. Too often, teens and adults get caught up in what is popular without considering the effects and consequences of those actions. Let’s take the lead in our country’s new initiative to cut cancer deaths in half in the next 25 years by educating, honoring, and uniting everyone about fighting cancer. As one of the leading causes of death worldwide, everyone knows someone who has been affected by cancer. We have the power to educate, advocate, and participate in a project that will turn one pink-out day into a year of cancer awareness. As a state association, our goals are to document the following:
The Goals of Kick Cancer Projects are: Let’s work together to give cancer the boot. #kickcancer
