Video: United to End Colorectal Cancer
Allies shared their stories and the vital need to end colorectal cancer in this video presented at the national Blue Hope Bash in November 2024. The video features Bash co-chair and patient Alison Friedman.
The Colorectal Cancer Alliance plays a pivotal role in advancing research, raising awareness, and supporting patients. Through significant investments like Project Cure CRC, the Alliance aims to improve treatments and provide a robust support system for those affected.
The importance of community, hope, and collaboration is essential to ultimately eradicating the terminal aspect of colorectal cancer. It is critical for everyone to unite in this life-saving mission.
