The Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc. has joined forces with the American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network (ACS CAN) to empower and improve the lives of Alpha Phi Alpha brothers, African American men, and the communities that the fraternity serves through education, screening, collaboration, and the promotion of healthy lifestyles.

As the health care debate continues in Washington, one fact remains: our nation's health care system still isn't meeting the needs of its people.

Every single day, people with serious medical conditions -- like cancer -- are denied health insurance. They're forced to decide between paying for treatment and feeding their families. They're going broke just to save their lives.

Debate is still happening in Congress and there is still time to make a difference. 

With enough signatures we can pressure Congress to do the right thing and act now on health care reform.  We'll then hand - deliver the petitions to Congress so lawmakers from both parties can see we are still fighting - and that they should too.

Join your fellow brothers and sign our petition at
