The American Lung Association has been fighting lung disease for nearly 100 years. With the generous support of the public and the help of volunteers, the Lung Association has seen many advances against lung disease. However, the work is not finished. As the Lung Association looks forward to its second century, it will continue to strive to make breathing easier for everyone through programs of education, community service, advocacy, and research. American Lung Association® activities are supported by donations to Christmas Seals®, as well as other voluntary contributions.
