What is a LUNG FORCE Hero?
A LUNG FORCE Hero is someone living with or a survivor of lung disease.
What is a LUNG FORCE Champion?
LUNG FORCE Champions are patients, caregivers, family, friends and co-workers of those who are impacted by lung cancer or lung disease.
Our Heroes and Champions share their powerful journeys - stories which help educate the public about what it's like to have lung cancer or lung disease. Heroes may also be asked to speak at a LUNG FORCE Walk Kick-off event, Corporate Recruitment event and/or on Walk day.
If you're interested in sharing as a LUNG FORCE Hero or Champion, please contact Lisa Burdzy for more information. We also invite you to Share Your Voice and read about other Heroes' experiences too. Everyone's story is unique, and we appreciate you getting involved to inspire others on this journey.
