Rein in Sarcoma | Increase Awareness. Increase Survivors.
By supporting Rein in Sarcoma, you educate the public and medical community about sarcomas, support sarcoma patients and their loved ones, and fund life-saving research. All donations made to Rein in Sarcoma through Give to the Max day are being matched, up to $10,000, through the kindness of an anonymous partner.
Rein In Sarcoma formed in 2001 to raise awareness about sarcoma cancers. Sarcomas are aggressive cancers found in connective tissues, bone or soft tissue, throughout the body. Sarcoma cancers are in the top five childhood cancers. Adults also are diagnosed with soft tissue or bone sarcomas.
A critical element for successful medical outcomes is early diagnosis. Rein in Sarcoma works closely with medical professionals to promote earlier, accurate diagnoses of all patients with a suspicious lump, bump, or bruise.
You can help Rein in Sarcoma broaden our outreach to assist sarcoma patients and their families through outreach, education, and support of sarcoma research.

SARCOMA CANCERS
Sarcomas are aggressive types of cancers that occur in the connective tissues of the body. Approximately 15,000 new cases of soft tissue and bone sarcomas are diagnosed each year in the United States. While rare among adults (less than 2% of all adult cancers), sarcoma cancers are among the top five most commonly diagnosed cancers affecting children.
OUR STORY
Rein in Sarcoma has funded over $2 million by the Foundation which has leveraged 13.4 million for sarcoma research. Although significant, the money is only a small part of our story. We are a small but mighty nonprofit organization dedicated to sarcoma patients, survivors and their families. We represent all who come to celebrate life and hope for those with sarcoma.
We are a community of dedicated doctors, nurses, volunteers, donors, staff, thrivors (survivors), and loved ones committed to improving the lives of all who have been touched by sarcoma cancers.
"Research and education are the cornerstones for improving sarcoma patient survival and quality of life." - Dr. Denis Clohisy, University of Minnesota
