It Takes MSK
Marketing Campaign

This campaign spotlights the incredible stories that come from MSK every single day. It unifies the 3 pillars of the institution — patient care, research and education — in a way that is bold and exciting. It will run throughout the tri-state area to ensure full coverage of the communities we serve. 

The campaign answers a profound question: What does it take to give someone with cancer the best possible chance to overcome their disease? 

It takes an institution that does nothing but cancer. One with a community of world-class experts across research, care and education, working together to find your cure.

It takes experts who are solving the biggest mysteries of cancer, like how and why it grows and spreads. Experts who develop new treatments that save lives and preserve quality of life. Experts with the most experienced hands, who provide the most personal and compassionate care for every patient. And experts who are training the next generation of scientists and clinicians so we can care for the patients of today and tomorrow.

It takes knowing anything is possible at a place that specializes in both the science and humanity of hope.

When it comes to cancer, it takes MSK.
