Stand Up To Cancer said more than $123.6 million has been pledged collectively so far in connection with the Sept. 7 “roadblock” fundraising telecast in the United States and Canada.

The funds pledged toward the SU2C scientific model will be directed to collaborative research programs utilizing SU2C’s scientific oversight in both the United States and Canada.

The live show was SU2C’s sixth biennial fundraising telecast since the organization launched in 2008 and marks ten years of impact in the fight against cancer.

In the U.S., SU2C is still accepting donations at www.StandUpToCancer.org and at 1-888-90-STAND (78263).

The telecast is available at www.StandUpToCancer.org/show.
