Explore the Impact of Non-Profit Organizations Working for a Better World

Not all support groups are created equal, nor are all of the patients that benefit from them the same. GIST Support International (GSI) has members facing this rare cancer from around the globe – including the United States, United Kingdom, Austria, India, Netherlands, China, Australia, Mexico, Italy, Canada and beyond – to benefit more and more patients.

"GSI (Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumor Support, International) is truly a patient-driven organization, held together by the bonds of our email groups, which serve as our support system. Patients come and go, either because of death or long-term survival, but each and every person who associates with GSI through our LISTSERV discussions leaves a lasting piece of information and history for those who will follow in the future."
