The Annie Appleseed Project was founded in 2000 by Ann Fonfa, a 25 year breast cancer survivor and warrior, whose journey was chronicled in Hope Never Dies.
The goal was to bring complementary and alternative therapies to the mainstream, while also serving as a place where all ideas are scrutinized.
From its inception, the Annie Appleseed Project sought to …
- Challenge the existing treatment paradigm
- Question the existing research methods and subjects
- Propose new directions for both, ending with true Integrative Oncology
The first Annie Appleseed Conference took place in 2005.
