Friends - When the agriculture community gets together to solve a problem, good things happen. With the support of friends like you, Cultivating a Cure has raised over $537,000 in the past nine years to support cancer treatment and prevention research at The Comprehensive Cancer Center— Arthur G. James Cancer Hospital and Richard J. Solove Research Institute at The Ohio State University.

This year’s event will be our 10th and will return to our farm in Coshocton Sunday, Aug. 16. Please accept this invitation for you and your guest, and share this opportunity with your network of friends, family and community partners. Children also are welcome to this family-friendly event with activities for all ages. Our goal is to involve as many people as possible in our efforts to connect as an agricultural community and recognize our responsibility to support efforts to find a cure to a disease that has impacted many of our lives and families.

I hope to see you Aug. 16.

WE’RE GROWING GOOD…

For over three decades Ohio Farm Bureau Foundation has been committed to driving community change, stimulating new ideas, and engaging audiences in a conversation around sustainable agriculture.

We know that it takes a collaborative approach to growing a vibrant food system. That’s why we’re building unique partnerships by investing in local programs committed to addressing Ohio’s agricultural challenges. To date more than $2 million has been granted to projects that focus on agricultural education, environment and economic issues.

We strive to support the next generation of agriculture producers, scientists, and business and community leaders. By providing scholarships and professional development opportunities, we’re supporting leaders breaking new ground in agriculture.

The Ohio Farm Bureau Foundation is proud to support OSUCCC's innovative approaches to preventing, diagnosing, and treating cancer with the hope that research will lead to a cure in our lifetime.

ONE PERSON, ONE DISCOVERY AT A TIME.

The OSUCCC—James strives to create a cancer-free world by integrating  scientific research with excellence in education and patient-centered care, a  strategy that leads to better methods of prevention, detection and treatment. 

Ohio State is one of only 41 National Cancer Institute (NCI)-designated  comprehensive cancer centers and one of only four centers funded by the NCI to conduct both phase I and phase II clinical trials. The NCI has rated Ohio State’s cancer program as “exceptional,” the highest rating given by NCI survey teams. 

As the cancer program’s 306-bed adult patient-care component, The James is a  “Top Hospital” as named by the Leapfrog Group and one of the top 20 cancer hospitals in the nation as ranked by U.S.News & World Report.
