In this episode, we take a closer look at two of the largest cancer charities—the Susan G. Komen Foundation and the American Cancer Society—and the controversies that have followed them. From accusations of “pinkwashing,” where Komen has partnered with corporations whose products may actually contribute to cancer risk, to backlash over their funding priorities and trademark battles over the pink ribbon, Komen’s image has not been without scrutiny. On the other side, the American Cancer Society has faced criticism over executive salaries, fundraising practices, and questions about how much money truly reaches patients in need versus research or administrative costs. Together, we examine how these organizations have shaped the public fight against cancer, the trust issues that remain, and what accountability might look like in the world of big nonprofit health organizations.
