1UP on Cancer

1Up On Cancer is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization powered by the gaming community, providing direct financial assistance to adults undergoing cancer treatment in the United States. While many charities focus on pediatric cancer, 1Up On Cancer fills a critical gap by helping adults age 18 and up manage the crushing cost of treatment.

Their mission is simple but impactful: ease the financial burden of cancer so patients can focus on healing. Through quarterly application windows, approved recipients have their treatment bills paid directly to healthcare providers. This support goes directly where it matters most—into the hands of patients and clinics.

Founded by gamers frustrated by the lack of support for adult cancer patients, 1Up On Cancer thrives on community engagement. They collaborate with streamers, gamers, and creators to raise awareness and funds through charity streams, events, raffles, and more.

1Up On Cancer also proudly partners with LAN All Night, a 100% volunteer-run organization that hosts high-energy LAN events celebrating community, competition, and charity. Every dollar raised at these events supports the fight against cancer and the power of gaming to make a real-world impact.

Whether you donate, stream for charity, or help spread the word, you’re part of a movement proving that gamers can change lives.
