Martin Smith had the idea to create Cancer Trust after participating in a bicycle ride that raised money for cancer research. The goal is to use crowdfunding and the internet to raise $1 million annually for cancer research. Cancer Trust plans to launch Cure Cancer Starter, the first crowdfunding platform dedicated to cancer research funding. They are partnering with UNC and need help from UNC to create research campaigns and recruit a board in order to launch Cure Cancer Starter by the end of the year.
