    Phil and Penny Knight announced today a record-breaking $2 billion gift to the Oregon Health & Science University’s Knight Cancer Institute to transform the future of cancer care and set a new standard globally. Thank you to Phil and Penny Knight for their incredible generosity.
    White text over a black background; “Give Cancer Hell” An OHSU Knight Cancer Institute logo is placed below.
    The top text reads:

Cancer is the biggest fight in the history of the world. We will win.
It will be hard. We're built for it.
We care. Every breath. Of every second. Of every day.
Great things come from the most unexpected places.
Look around. We're surrounded by heroes.
This is not a job. This is our life.
Cancer does not discriminate. Neither will we.
Bold moves only.
Cancer doesn't see us coming. We will outlast, and we will outwit it.
This fight is and always will be personal.
"GIVE CANCER HELL." in bold at the bottom.
