 
Did YOU participate in either the run or walk?
If so, take a look at our
2008 Event Photos page.
Maybe there's a photo of you there!Nearly 150,000 American women and men are diagnosed with colorectal cancer each year. The New York Colon Cancer Challenge is the premier colorectal cancer awareness event for metropolitan New York providing a unique opportunity for the public, survivors, and families to raise awareness and contribute to the fight against this preventable but often fatal disease. It includes a 4-mile run, a 15K run and a 1.7-mile Remembrance and Prevention Walk in Central Park. Funds raised directly support Partners in Prevention (a program of Montefiore Medical Center and the Albert Einstein Cancer Center under the direction of Thomas K. Weber, MD, professor of surgery and molecular genetics) mission and the Colon Cancer Alliance, the voice of survivors. For additional information, call 718/430-2600 or e-mail us at info@ColonCancerChallenge.org. We wish to thank all of our supporters from last year who helped us achieve our goal of raising $250,000 — this year’s goal is $280,000. |
