The Victoria’s Secret Global Fund for Women’s Cancers

Victoria’s Secret (VS) has been a truly groundbreaking partner of Pelotonia over the past 13 years, raising more than $20 million from the VS Peloton for cancer research and enabling 100% of every participant-raised dollar to be directed to innovative cancer research through their support as a Major Funding Partner. As VS sought to make a transformational investment in the future of women’s health, they chose Pelotonia as their partner to execute a funding mechanism that will build a global community of cancer advocates and ultimately reduce the cancer burden for women around the world.  

NEW - 2022 Meritorious Awards - Victoria’s Secret will present five female cancer researchers with scientific achievement awards to recognize and further their outstanding contributions to the field of women’s cancers. Each awardee will receive a $100,000 honorarium and will be invited to serve as an active participant and mentor in the broader women’s cancers grant program, which will include multi-year research grants for both established and early-stage investigators. The awards will be presented at the AACR Annual Meeting 2022 in New Orleans. Nominations will be accepted and reviewed by a committee of global cancer research experts overseen by The Fund’s scientific partner, the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR).

We will announce additional funding opportunities for mid-level and early-stage female investigators working worldwide to conduct innovative cancer research in the field of women’s cancers in Spring 2022. Please subscribe to our email list here so you don’t miss out on any important updates!

The dollars you raise and/or contribute will continue to benefit research at The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center – Arthur G. James Cancer Hospital and Richard J. Solove Research Institute.
