About the "DON'T GET LEFT BEHIND" Challenge

The DON'T GET LEFT BEHIND Challenge is a 60-day movement & fundraising challenge dedicated to supporting The Colon Cancer Foundation’s (CCF) mission of A World Without Colorectal Cancer™ through advocacy, research and awareness.

During October and November, we challenge each participant to complete 45 miles in whichever way they prefer (run, walk, cycle, dance, swim, row, etc.) and aim to raise $450 towards our mission. Registration is $20 and will count toward your fundraising goal. There is no required fundraising minimum, but we do encourage you to set your goal at $450.

DID YOU KNOW that the 5-year survival rate when colorectal cancer is caught in the early stages is 90%; BUT(T) ONLY 10% when diagnosed in late stages.

WHY 45 MILES AND $450?

Colorectal cancer is on the rise in younger Americans. For many years now, CCF has advocated for lowering the age at which colorectal cancer screening should begin. In 2019, the American Cancer Society responded by lowering the recommended screening age from 50 to 45. We are extremely proud of this recent victory BUT(T) we recognize how far we have to go until every eligible American IS screened at 45. We are inviting you to move 45 miles and raise $450 - the average cost to send our outreach team to an underserved community to spread the word. We will be supporting you every mile of the way.

Let’s save lives one mile at a time!
