AUGUSTA, Ga. – The Augusta University baseball and softball teams host the annual Cancer Awareness Games on Saturday, March 28. Baseball hosts North Georgia at 3 pm while softball hosts Columbus State for a double header at 1pm and 3pm.

Once again, the Jaguars are teaming with the Augusta University Georgia Cancer Center to spread support and awareness for all types of cancer. The Georgia Cancer Center will be on site for the game to take donations, inform fans on how to get involved, and give information. 
 

The Georgia Cancer Center is on a mission for Georgia providing industry-leading cancer research and care that benefits patients locally and globally. Our ultimate goal is to eradicate cancer and we are proudly making progress every day. When we say patient care is a priority, we mean it. We assemble custom teams of field experts to address each individual's unique needs.

We believe accessibility to advanced care is a right, which is why we are a national leader in outreach to underserved populations. Millions of rural Georgians are often underserved by medical providers. This population deserves better and cancer care is no exception. The Georgia Cancer Center is committed to reaching rural populations to ensure world-class cancer screenings and treatment are available to all. Partnerships with local communities for increased access to education and screenings are particularly helpful for diagnosing cases in earlier, more easily treatable stages of the disease.
