Inspiration Behind Testicular Cancer Awareness Foundation
October 2007, Jordan Jones was diagnosed with an aggressive form of testicular cancer (stage 4, medical reference 3c) at the early age of 13. It was during his treatment that it became apparent there was a lack of education and support for this disease.
Testicular Cancer Awareness Foundation was formed October 2009. We are a nonprofit, compassionately dedicated to improving the lives of those affected by testicular cancer, educating others about the importance of awareness and early detection, and continuing to save lives.
