VISION STATEMENT

Definition of mAss Kicker
1. noun. Someone who gets an intimidating diagnosis, hears the words “we found a mass in your ____(insert important body structure here)”, and refuses to let it control their life.

The different colors of the "mAss logo" represent the different diagnosis with the colors of the corresponding awareness ribbon. For example pink is breast cancer, gray is brain tumor/cancer, green is lymphoma, etc. They are different colors but the logo is still the same, symbolizing an underlying unity between all types of tumors/cancer. In the wise words of Seasame Street, we are "Different but the Same".
