Agency Details:

American Lung Association Of CA

The mission of the American Lung Association is to prevent lung disease and promote lung health.

Description:
The American Lung Association is the greatest single resource for information and education about asthma. We have assumed a leading role in the fight against tobacco, helping smokers to quit, encouraging children not to start smoking, and protecting nonsmokers from secondhand smoke. We are constantly fighting for improved government standards for air quality, so everyone can breathe easier. The ALA of California has funded research since 1958. This year, we funded 21 projects for nearly $500,000.

History:
Since 1904, the American Lung Association has been fighting lung disease through education, community service, advocacy and research. Lung disease, including asthma, emphysema, and lung cancer, is the third leading cause of death in America.
