Colon Cancer is the 2nd leading cause of cancer-related
deaths among men and women in our nation. Every year,
nearly 150,000 people in the U.S. are diagnosed with the
disease, and nearly 60,000 die... they are our family
members, our friends, our neighbors...ourselves. Join our
team and help raise awareness of colon cancer and the
importance of early detection and screenings. Colon cancer is
90% curable if caught in the early stages. Early detection is
important for the prevention and successful treatment of colon
cancer.  More than 13,000 colorectal cancer cases are
diagnosed each year in people under age of 50.  You should
consult your physician about your personal risk factors, family
health information and a screening schedule right for you.
