Sacks of Love is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization that aims to spread awareness for male health issues, specifically testicular cancer. Testicular cancer is the most common cancer among younger men. In 2013, 350 men in the United States died from this disease. However, when detected early it is usually not fatal. We encourage all men to perform self-checks regularly as demonstrated in our self-check materials. This will lead to early detections and ultimately save lives. We want to create a community that brings together men and their families to support one another. This community can offer support and guidance to many men who are embarrassed or ashamed. Sacks of Love uses humor and positive messages to end the negative stigma surrounding testicular cancer in order to create an environment where men can feel comfortable sharing their experiences and get the resources that they need.
