Our Mission

Ink Against Cancer Foundation is grassroots 501(c)(3) foundation dedicated to raising cancer awareness and funding by uniting local, statewide, and national artists of all media, with a strong focus on the interconnected worlds of tattooing, music, and entertainment, providing financial assistance to help cover daily living expenses to warriors going through their journey.

In addition to providing a supplemental safety net for various living and medical expenses, IAC has also helped to organize and financially support individuals; last wishes, funeral expenses and more. Through a volunteer staff who work tirelessly, putting together events to raise funds which have helped to support hundreds of Cancer Warriors across the country through their cancer journey.

IAC receives no government funding and relies solely on the generous support of the art community, public and private donations, and sponsorship partners.

IAC Foundation was founded in 2017 in efforts to raise funds for my brother “Wolf” while going through his own cancer journey. After my brother’s passing I kept the promise to establish this foundation to continue to help other Cancer Warriors in his memory. Our foundation has non-paid staff and is all volunteer driven. We work tirelessly in putting together events to raise funds for Cancer Warriors no matter the type of cancer and age.
Our events include, but are not limited to remote tattoo shop events, silent/online auctions, music & art functions, and our large annual Ink Against Cancer event.
