Free testing offered by the Information is Power program is supported entirely by philanthropic donations.

Thanks to the generosity of our sponsors and donations from individuals, we have provided over 6500 tests to Alabamians over 8 years. Over 4500 of those tests were provided at no cost.

A significant part of our efforts have focused on outreach in underserved and underrepresented individuals throughout the state in order to improve access to potentially life-saving information. With support from funders throughout the state, we have expanded our initiative to include partners all over Alabama that can help us reach members of underserved communities including Alabama A&M University, Alabama State University, Miles College, Talladega College, healthcare providers in the Montgomery area including Dr. John Jernigan of Mulberry Associates and Rural Health Medical Program which serves a five-county region out of their headquarters in Selma, AL. We still have work to erase health disparities and increase accessibility of genetic testing and cancer screening, but we are thankful for our partners and supporters for sharing our vision of making this opportunity available and accessible. We are committed to continuing our programming in the local community as we expand beyond North Alabama.

Thank you for considering supporting us. You may make a donation here and indicate that you’d like your contribution to support Information is Power.
