American Cancer Society Discovery Shop Ebay Tacoma


  • Mission

    At the American Cancer Society, our mission is to save lives, celebrate lives, and lead the fight for a world without cancer. Through our eBay storefront, we extend this mission into the digital marketplace — turning generous donations into critical funding for cancer research, patient support programs, prevention efforts, and advocacy.

    By harnessing the power of online reselling, volunteer support, and community engagement, the ACS eBay program transforms every listed item into an opportunity to give hope, drive innovation, and help people in every community affected by cancer.

    Every sale makes a difference. Every item supports the mission. Together, we’re making progress possible.
