American Lung Association in Alaska saves lives by preventing lung disease and promoting lung health.
About
American Lung Association is the oldest voluntary health organization in the US, founded in 1904 to combat tuberculosis, and began here in Alaska in 1934. Our mission has continually moved forward, and today ALA is fighting for all those who suffer from lung cancer, COPD, asthma and other lung diseases. However, everyone who breathes, benefits from the work of the American Lung Association, as we have a strong focus on healthy air both indoors and out. Our vision is of a world free of lung disease and our purpose is to save lives through research, advocacy, and education.
How Pick.Click.Give. makes a difference
For more than 120 years, the American Lung Association has been working to save lives by improving lung health and preventing lung disease. In Alaska, hundreds of people die each year from smoking-related illnesses, while thousands more live with asthma, COPD, and other chronic lung diseases.Your Pick.Click.Give. donation supports programs right here in Alaska, including Better Breathers Club support groups, asthma education and awareness, clean air advocacy, and tobacco prevention and cessation efforts. We help young people avoid nicotine addiction, support those who want to quit smoking, and provide free resources through our Lung HelpLine and community-based programs.
We also advocate for policies that protect the air all Alaskans breathe, both indoors and out. While we've made significant progress in creating smokefree public spaces, there is still important work to do to ensure clean, healthy air for everyone.
Pick.Click.Give. donations help fund research, education, advocacy, and support services that improve lives across Alaska.
Because when you can't breathe, nothing else matters.
