Racca Cancer Foundation

05/05/2026

This year, RCF invites you to rally behind an incredible kid with an unstoppable spirit, Leo Jaeger.

Leo is 10 years old, full of energy, heart, and determination. He loves sports, being active, and keeping up with his siblings - George and June. But behind that bright smile is a journey that has tested him in ways most of us can’t imagine.

Diagnosed as a baby with a rare cancer, Leo has spent much of his life in and out of treatment. He fought his way to remission once before, and now, after a recurrence in 2025, he’s bravely facing the fight again.

Through it all, Leo continues to show up! Whether it’s pushing through to perform in his school play or getting back on the basketball court, he refuses to let cancer define him.

💙And now, we have a chance to show up for him 💙

Join us on September 19, 2026, for the 17th annual Racca Disc Golf Tournament as we come together to support Leo and the Jaeger family. Every throw, every team, and every donation helps make a difference in his ongoing fight.

🎗️The fundraiser will be live shortly to kick it off!!

Sign up. Show up. Support Leo! ✨

🫶Let’s fill the course with community, support, and hope.

March is Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month 💙

At the Racca Cancer Foundation, this month is deeply personal. Our foundation was created in memory of our friend Nick Racca, who passed away from colon cancer at just 29 years old. His story is a powerful reminder that this disease can impact people at any age - and why awareness and screening matter.

Here are a few facts everyone should know:

• Colorectal cancer is the 2nd leading cause of cancer death in the U.S.
• Screening should begin at age 45 for most adults. Guidelines from the American Cancer Society and the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force recommend earlier or more frequent screening for higher-risk individuals.
• When caught early, the survival rate is about 90%.
• Screening can actually prevent cancer by detecting and removing precancerous polyps.

Colorectal cancer often develops without symptoms, which is why screening and awareness are so important.

Help us spread the word this month 💙

Talk to your doctor. Encourage loved ones to get screened. Share this post and help save lives.

Our dear friend Jamie is many things: a devoted mom to two incredible children, a fun-loving and gracious friend, and someone who has always shown up for the people she loves. Now, Jamie is facing one of the toughest battles of her life - cancer- and it’s our turn to show up for her!

While Jamie continues to fight with strength, courage, and hope, the financial burden of ongoing medical care, travel, and rehabilitation is overwhelming. No one should have to carry this weight alone while trying to heal.

This fundraiser is our way of rallying around Jamie—to lift some of that burden so she can focus on what matters most: beating this and getting back to being the amazing mom and friend we all know and love.

Any donation, big or small, truly makes a difference. If you’re unable to give, please consider sharing this post to help spread the word. Every act of kindness matters.

Let’s remind Jamie that she is surrounded by love and that she’s not fighting this alone. 💜🩵
