“A recent prediction was made that by
2030, colorectal cancer will be the leading
cause of cancer deaths. This is disturbing—
it’s not OK—and our community is not
willing to wait for answers.”
Paving
the Path
—ANJEE DAVIS, PRESIDENT OF FIGHT COLORECTAL CANCER
Your support is essential as we relentlessly fight for informed patient support,
impactful policy change, and breakthrough research endeavors.
Steve Depp served as a board member from 2006–2010.
After his diagnosis with stage IV CRC, he searched for
ways to improve both prevention and treatment. Steve was
a physicist who helped develop bar codes and computer
screens; he held multiple patents.

He knew that science could solve
problems and he left Fight CRC part
of his estate to move science forward
when he passed away in 2011.

Diagnosed with stage IV cancer at age 48, Dina M. Golas was determined to find a cure alongside Fight CRC. Before
her passing in November 2020 at age 53, she offered her experience from working on Wall Street as a newly
appointed board member and she represented patients during the Cologuard® Classic.
Dina believed wholeheartedly in Fight CRC’s mission to find a cure and
insisted that part of her estate be donated to research efforts.

Dollars from Steve’s and Dina’s estates are being used to fund our upcoming Path to a Cure Think Tank (see page 32
for details). These funds are paving the path so we can take the necessary next steps to drive research forward.
