Minnesota Colorectal Cancer Research Foundation

Minnesota Colorectal Cancer Research Foundation A community that works passionately to raise funds for research that will improve the survival and quality of life of people with colon and re**al cancer.

Colore**al cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death. This year, it is anticipated that 149,500 people in the United States will be diagnosed with colon and re**al cancer, and that 53,200 people will die from the disease. Among people under the age of 50—the recommended age to begin screening—colore**al cancer is on the rise. If the disease is diagnosed early, the five-year survival is 90

%, but once it reaches stage 4 and has already spread to other organs, the survival rate is 14%. Here’s what we can do:

We can tell everyone we know—family, friends, coworkers, neighbors—about the importance of screening. While there are many types of screening exams, the best test is the one that gets done. We can also talk about the critical need for colore**al cancer research. Just as the Susan G. Komen Foundation did so effectively for breast cancer, we can do the same for colore**al cancer. By supporting the Minnesota Colore**al Cancer Research Foundation tonight, you are moving us ever closer to finding better treatments and a cure to this disease. The mission of the foundation is to build a community of colore**al cancer survivors, and their family and friends, who will work passionately to raise money to fund research that will improve the survival and quality of life of people with colon and re**al cancer.
