Foundation Programs

TUCC Foundation supports and contributes in the following five overarching areas:

  • COLLABORATION: TUCC Foundation fosters collaborative relationships among community clinics, educational support groups and social services agencies to provide assistance to those who would not otherwise receive necessary urologic care.
  • RESEARCH: TUCC Foundation makes contributions to medical and urologic specific research that improves urologic cancer and non-cancer diagnoses, standards of care and treatments.

TUCC Foundation recently issued a $60,000 donation to the American Cancer Society. This donation will help fund a research grant studying metastatic prostate cancer. We have donated nearly $500,000 to research over the past 9 years.
