I am starting a Cancer Awareness group for my church in honor of my father and uncle who both died of lung cancer.. I was having dificulty getting the information needed for this effort and was wondering if I should persue this avenue more. I would also like some lung cancer web sites that could help me with this I planned to have a fund raiser to buy materials as well.

I would keep pursuing it. You can find some information at www.cancer.org and the Mayo Clinic website is good too. Maybe if you contacted their website or some local physician/oncology offices they would be able to provide you some pamphlets to hand out about lung cancer. What you are doing is great. My uncle died from brain and lung cancer, but the lung cancer is what killed him in the end. Dont just limit yourself to your church. There are other ways to get the word out.

Yes!
The fact that you are having trouble shows that this sort of service is needed.
Don't limit yourself to lung cancer, cancer awareness in general needs to be raised.
Contact your local cancer association for details.
Fear of the unknown is harder to face than cancer with knowledge!
