Since losing my husband to Pancreatic Cancer in 2005, I have focused my efforts to support research towards a cure for this terrible disease. For me, there couldn’t be a more meaningful way to honor his memory than to become involved in such promising research through the John Kanzius Cancer Research Foundation.”

“Our community and region has an opportunity to be a part of a significant and historic undertaking. By supporting the research now underway at various medical centers in the United States of the non-invasive radio wave cancer treatment discovered by John Kanzius, we can all unite in finding a cure for cancer and in rebuilding our community’s vision for the future.”
 Mark DiVecchio
“A healthy community is a progressive and forward-looking community. Improving public health and thus creating a strong economy will make our county a better place to live and work. We all need to work together to make this happen.”

"I personally worked with John in the early stages of evaluating potential applications of the radiowave generator in treatment of cancer. He was a remarkable man and he left with us the promise of a novel cancer therapy unlike any used today. Based on early research studies, I believe the radiowave technology provides real hope of a new treatment option for cancer patients. I am grateful to be part of the Board and look forward with enthusiasm to the possibilities that lie ahead."
 Thomas Fucci, MPA
"It's hard to find someone you know who has not been touched by cancer in some way, either directly or indirectly. We're all in this together and I believe we all have something to give to help find a cure for this disease."
 Patrick Fetzner
"It is an honor to be on the Board. John's non-invasive cancer treatment has been hailed as the "most exciting cancer research breakthrough in the last 20 years!" by Dr. Steve Curley of M.D. Anderson Medical Center. The thought of eradicating this insidious disease, which has touched virtually every family, would be one of the greatest humanitarian feats of our time."
 Jeffrey Ludrof
"I first met John Kanzius during my own battle with cancer and was immediately impressed with his vision and tenacity to cure this terrible disease. John\'s idea will not only have a huge positive impact on the Erie, PA community but the world. I am proud to serve and support this foundation."
