How are we going to CURE colorectal cancer?
First, we need a plan. We are convening the brightest minds in colorectal cancer research and
patient education to build a report and uncover the most significant issues that CRC patients
face today. In December, we will bring together these individuals for the first-ever Path to a Cure
Think Tank. Scientists, researchers, and medical professionals will map out the path to a cure.
Donate to support research at FightCRC.org/donate.
Put a Blue Star on
Your State
BEGINNING DECEMBER 2021
