16 years in, the ICAN Applied Underwriters Invitational is our most important fundraiser of the year.

This special tournament is dedicated to the memory of Bob Schlosser, fondly known as “the Commish” of the Arizona Country Club—a wonderful person taken too soon by lung cancer.

Each year, this event gives us an opportunity to honor Bob and others we have lost, support those who are courageously fighting cancer today, and prepare for those who will face it in the future—friends, family members, and even ourselves.

Founded in Phoenix 29 years ago, the **International Cancer Advocacy Network (ICAN)** has grown from a local effort into a worldwide organization. To date, we have helped more than 19,500 patients in all 50 states and 83 countries.

ICAN provides: Clinical trial matching services, compassionate use matching services, Oncology nursing services and direct patient navigation and advocacy

We specialize in rare tumors and also lead five global, multi-stakeholder biomarker support groups.

This Invitational is a true labor of love. It is organized entirely by volunteers, with extraordinary leadership from Co-Chairs Cathy Dalzell and Wendy Look, and the dedication of dozens of others who make this event possible year after year. You can give with confidence knowing that more than 90% of all revenue goes directly to ICAN’s Patient Program Services. According to our most recent tax return: 93% was allocated to Patient Services, 5% to Management and 2% to Fundraising

Your continued support is vital. With your help, ICAN can keep fulfilling its mission: helping late-stage cancer patients find life-extending—and often life-saving—clinical trials, treatments, and therapies.
