Teams

Colon cancer awareness is finally gaining national attention—and your team’s involvement makes a real difference. Each year, thousands of American families are affected by this common but often underdiscussed disease. When your organization forms a team, you become part of the growing fight to change that.

By participating in the Colon Screening for Life 5K Run/Walk and 1 Mile Walk, your team joins a communitywide movement working toward a future without colon cancer. Colon Screening for Life is a nonprofit organization on a mission to end preventable colon cancer death and suffering. Let’s walk, run, and jog together for a world without colon cancer.
