This , we’ve been deeply moved by the Rutgers community's overwhelming response to the Coloring Book Initiative—so many have shared personal stories about how cancer has touched their lives, families, and friends.

This reflection of lived experience is part of a much larger reality, as cancer continues to affect communities across New Jersey and beyond.

As New Jersey’s only National Cancer Institute-designated Comprehensive Cancer Center, Rutgers Cancer Institute, together with RWJBarnabas Health, are working to expand treatment possibilities and shape the future of cancer care. 🔬🎗️

We want to hear from you—your stories, your support, and what this cause means to you. There’s still time to get involved.

Join us for the Knight Run for Research 5K|2K on June 14 and support cancer research alongside fellow alumni and friends. 🔗 https://bit.ly/4tP7k2e

This kind of progress doesn’t happen on its own. It happens because people like you stand beside the scientists and patients, pushing the boundaries of what’s possible. Your support is not just appreciated - it is essential.

“I honestly never knew I would make it this far,” says recent Rutgers University—Camden graduate Gichera Loman. “There were moments where it felt like life kept stacking obstacles in front of me, but I kept pushing anyway. Looking at graduation now, it doesn’t just feel like finishing school—it feels like proof that my story didn’t end where it could have.”
