is the nonprofit circus of begging.
Please consider Malecare as your ringmaster.
Help men live longer and happier lives by donating at https://malecare.org/donate
Malecare started and runs the online support community that you are part of.
Malecare is:
The only prostate cancer support network to have invented and patented a cancer-focused medical device
The only prostate cancer support network to have received NIH/NCI funding for a prostate cancer clinical trial.
The only prostate cancer support network staff to have authored or co-authored over twenty peer-reviewed and published articles, six book chapters and numerous conference abstracts and presentions.
The first prostate cancer support network to have created unique programs for Gay men (1998), African American men (2001), Advanced Prostate Cancer (2006) and Dual Cancer Diagnosed men (2017).
Malecare is responsible for leading advocacy for the patient right to determine visitors rather than hospitals, and restoration of CDC funding for prostate cancer research programs ($27.4 million)
Malecare now facilitates one of the most helpful prostate cancer patient annual conference.
Malecare began publishing unique patient-focused booklets about life with prostate cancer (Videos will be online towards the end of December).
Malecare founded and creates international collaborations through the Global Prostate Cancer Alliance.
All of Malecare's services are provided free to everyone.
There's more I didn't mention like Malecare started the world's first cancer research crowdfunding platform in the mid-2000's and created the widely used iOS app, Cancergraph.
I can also share what we don't do...we don't take millions (and the forced influence) from pharmaceutical companies, we don't pay our Director, me, insanely large salaries, like $320,000 or $1,600,000. We don't waste money on fundraising events and fruitless self-promotions. To support our work, we beg. And, today, during the circus that is , I am begging you to consider donating to Malecare to create action, hope and gratitude. Please donate at https://malecare.org/donate
Thank you.

Several people have asked for a way to share their Prostate Cancer hints and thoughts, beyond our online community.
Let's make a free book containing our wisdom about prostate cancer. Please write a 100-600 word post about some helpful hint or insight you have about prostate cancer. Caregivers are welcome to write a post, too. Post at: https://malecare.org/men-about-prostate-cancer/
We'll collect everyone's posts, correct spelling and grammar and create a free to download PDF in time for the December holidays. You can post with your own name or make up a name to remain anonymous. Think of this as a Secret Santa, if Santa had prostate cancer. Please write your post, today, at https://malecare.org/men-about-prostate-cancer/

•The trial asks how to best help gay and bisexual men having difficulty with urinary and or sexual functioning.

The Restore Study is a NIH/NCI funded clinical trial conducted by researchers from Malecare and the University of Minnesota.

Doctors don’t know what will work for gay and bisexual with prostate cancer because there are no evidence-based studies.

There are 614 studies focused on heterosexual men, but their findings may not generalize to gay and bisexual men with prostate cancer. We have created an evidence-based study to understand best practices to improve urinary and sexual function for gay and bisexual men who have been treated for prostate cancer.

If you match these criteria and are considering joining the study, please fill in the form at https://Malecare.org/restore .
