FAMILIES FIGHTING PANCREATIC CANCER
The National Pancreatic Cancer Foundation (NPCF) is a nonprofit organization that provides unwavering support to people touched by pancreatic cancer.

Grief doesn't follow a timeline.

It can show up months or years later, in a song, a familiar place, a birthday, a favorite meal, or a moment when you instinctively reach for your phone to call someone who isn't there anymore.

For families who have lost someone to pancreatic cancer, grief can be complicated. There can be relief that treatment is over, gratitude for the time you had, sadness for the time you didn't, and a thousand emotions that can exist at the same time.

There is no right way to grieve. And there is no deadline for missing someone.

Today, on National Grief Awareness Day, we're holding space for everyone carrying the loss of someone they love.

If you're comfortable, tell us their name or share one thing about them you never want to forget.

Let's keep their stories and the love they left behind alive.

What is the story behind Visions in Violet?

At its heart, it's about people.

The people we celebrate.

The people we remember.

The families walking through pancreatic cancer.

The survivors who continue to inspire us.

And the community that chooses to show up.

Visions in Violet is an evening to bring those people together, to honor, connect, and support the work of the National Pancreatic Cancer Foundation.

Because the impact of one night can reach far beyond the room.

A meaningful step forward for pancreatic cancer treatment.

On August 26, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved daraxonrasib (Rasonque), a targeted therapy for adults with metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma who have received at least one prior systemic therapy or are not candidates for multiagent systemic therapy.

In the clinical trial supporting the approval, daraxonrasib improved median overall survival compared with standard chemotherapy, while also improving progression-free survival and response rates.

This doesn't mean the fight is over. But new treatment options mean new possibilities for patients and families facing pancreatic cancer.

Today, we're recognizing the researchers, clinicians, patients, families, and advocates who continue to push pancreatic cancer research forward.

Treatment decisions should always be made with a qualified healthcare professional.

If you could pull up a chair and sit beside someone you've lost, who would you choose?

Maybe it's someone whose laugh you can still hear.

Someone who taught you something you'll carry forever.

Someone whose absence is felt in the quiet moments.

Or someone whose story deserves to be told again and again.

This August, we're inviting our community to remember the people who shaped us, loved us, and left a lasting mark on our lives.

Who would sit in your purple chair?

Tell us their name or share a memory of them below.

Let's fill this space with the stories of the people we carry with us.

You don't need hours of free time. You don't need the perfect words. And you definitely don't need to have all the answers.

Sometimes, five minutes is enough to remind someone they're not facing this alone.

Send the text. Make the call. Drop off the coffee. Listen. Show up.

Small acts of support can mean so much to someone navigating cancer.

What's one small thing someone has done for you that you'll never forget?

08/21/2026

A cancer diagnosis can bring an overwhelming number of questions.

What does this mean?
What happens next?
What are our options?
Where do we turn?

Having access to reliable information can help patients and families feel more prepared to navigate the road ahead.

Because answers don't change the diagnosis, but they can change how a family moves forward.

The National Pancreatic Cancer Foundation is here to connect patients and families with information, resources, and support.

Today is National Nonprofit Day!

We’re celebrating what happens when people choose to show up.

Every resource shared, every conversation started, every person reached, and every dollar given helps move the mission forward.

To our donors, volunteers, advocates, supporters, and community: thank you for showing up.

You are an important part of what makes this work possible.

When someone you care about is diagnosed with cancer, it's normal to wonder...

**"What should I say?"**

The truth is, you don't need to have the perfect words.

A simple message that reminds someone they're loved, remembered, and supported can mean more than you realize.

Sometimes the most meaningful texts aren't about fixing anything—they're about showing up.

💜 If you've supported someone through cancer, what message made the biggest difference?

Share it in the comments. Your words might help someone else reach out when it matters most.

Surviving cancer doesn't always mean the fear disappears.

For many survivors, life after treatment comes with a new challenge: learning to trust tomorrow again.

If you've ever found yourself worrying before a follow-up appointment, wondering what every new symptom means, or feeling like you're waiting for the other shoe to drop, you're not alone.

These feelings are more common than many people realize, and they're a reminder that healing isn't only physical.

Recovery includes your mind, your heart, and your emotional well-being, too.

If this resonates with you, know that there is support, and there is a community that understands.

What helped you feel more at peace after treatment? Share your experience in the comments.
