Replace care2's Breast Cancer button with an All Cancer button

ACTION: Ask care2 to replace the click to donate breast cancer button for one that will help humans and animals alike, one that promotes and supports Non-Animal Research to cure and prevent all cancers. 

According to Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine: 

Not only are non-animal methods cutting a new path in the testing of cancer-causing chemicals, they are also revolutionizing the search for cancer cures. For years, scientists have used massive numbers of mice, about a million per year, to screen potential anti-cancer drugs. But this system has a phenomenally low yield. 

A new method uses cultures of human cancer cells. These cells are obtained from biopsies or surgeries. In an automated method developed by Robert Shoemaker and Michael Boyd of the NCI, colon cancer cells, breast cancer cells, and many other cell types can be kept alive in test tubes. Substances are applied to these cells, and the results are checked and entered into a computer. Using this method, tens of thousands of potential anti-cancer drugs can be screened.
