Oscar-winning actress Meryl Streep has partnered with one of our favorite cancer-fighting charities, Stand Up To Cancer, to raise $50,000 for cancer research by October 2. With the widget below, Meryl is hoping to collect 10,000 individual $5 donations. Why $5? As Meryl says, for the cost of a cup of coffee or a magazine, you could contribute to the end of cancer as we know it.

To get your $5 in, just text STAND to 40202. You can also help by adding this widget to your blog or website, or sharing it with your Facebook or MySpace friends (just click the yellow SHARE button.)

Additionally, SU2C is asking the question this September: What would you give up to end cancer? Tell us below!
