(WTHR) - Tonight at 8:00 pm, you can Stand Up 2 Cancer.

Over 1,200 scientists and 160 clinical trials are working towards one goal: to end cancer in our lifetime.

Locally, the Cancer Support Community is announcing a major fundraiser, Laughing Matters.

"Cancer Support Community is here to make sure that no one faces their cancer journey alone," said Keri Brantley.





"As you can well imagine, it's a very scary process from diagnosis through the journey, so we're here to support those individuals through support groups, wellness classes, fitness classes for both the patient and the family and caregivers."

"We're so happy to announce tonight that Jay Leno will be our headliner on Saturday, March 11th, 2017 at the Hilbert Circle Theatre. It's our largest fundraiser of the year and we're only able to offer our free service through events like Laughing Matters, so we're very excited," said CEO Eric Richards.
