About Testicular Cancer Foundation

Founded in early 2009 as Single Jingles, a 501( c )( 3 ) nonprofit organization.

At the Testicular Cancer Foundation, we come to work every day because we want to save lives. We are a team of Testicular cancer survivors, caregivers, and advocates passionate about increasing education and awareness about the most common cancer in males ages 15-35…Testicular Cancer, ensuring that every man is equipped with the knowledge needed for early detection and cancer care. By providing answers to the question “What is testicular cancer” and offering resources explaining testicular cancer risk factors, we better educate men so they can quickly catch and treat this common cancer. Fighting a disease that affects a young demographic that feels invincible is an uphill battle, but we are taking it head-on by encouraging each cancer survivor to share their patient story so they can better support current patients navigating testicular cancer treatments. We understand the challenges faced by testicular cancer patients and are committed to providing the most up-to-date educational resources and support, from testicular cancer diagnosis through cancer treatment and beyond. Being the only full-time staffed testicular cancer group and leading provider of education materials in the country, our mission (and obligation) is to ensure every male knows the warning signs of a testicular tumor the disease and how to perform a testicular self-exam to protect their health and ensure long-term cancer survivorship.
