Following the LIVESTRONG SUMMIT, Keith Houston and his co-leader, Julie Houston return to the Upstate fired up and energized to share the message of The Lance Armstrong Foundation. In an effort to spread the grassroots movement throughout the Upstate, the Houstons became Greenville Army leaders as part of the Upstate Army Coalition and the LIVESTRONG Armies of South Carolina.
Welcome to the LIVESTRONG Army Greenville-Upstate South Carolina website!
We are part of the Upstate South Carolina LIVESTRONG Armies Coalition. We recruit within the Greenville and outlying areas to support our efforts on behalf of The Lance Armstrong Foundation.
The mission of the Lance Armstrong Foundation is to inspire and empower people affected by cancer.
"We believe that unity is strength, knowledge is power and attitude is everything.
We provide the practical information and tools people with cancer need to live life on their own terms.
We take aim at the gaps between what is known and what is done to prevent suffering and death due to cancer.
We unite people to fight cancer and pursue an agenda focused on:
Prevention
Access to screening and care
Improvement of the quality of life for cancer survivors
Investment in research
Founded in 1997 by cancer survivor and champion cyclist Lance Armstrong, the LAF is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization located in Austin, Texas."
