The Alliance’s signature events support programs to screen, care, and cure colorectal cancer. From galas to golf outings, your participation is a valued contribution to our cause.
Fundraise
With the Alliance, you can fundraise your way. Help end colorectal cancer by honoring a loved one, starting a fundraiser, or making an appeal on social media.
Donate
Every dollar increases access to screening, provides invaluable patient and family assistance, and helps to fund critical research.
Volunteer
Share your time or expertise in service of the colorectal cancer community. The Alliance has a role for everyone. Here are a few:
-
Tell your story. Your story is powerful. It can affect hearts, make change, and save lives. Our training and support will prepare you to speak with any audience — in-person, online, or over the airwaves.
-
Advocate for change. Together, we are stronger. Our Allies in Action grassroots advocacy program provides the tools and opportunities to make change in your own community, state, and beyond.
-
Offer your support. Connect in our online communities or become a support Buddy. No one should face colorectal cancer alone, and your experiences can make all the difference for someone in need.
Fundraise your way
Join our nation of allies as a DIYnamo! We'll work with you to turn your passion or hobby into a do-it-yourself fundraiser to help end colorectal cancer in our lifetime. Just turn on your imagination, use our fundraising tools, and increase your impact.
You can also raise money by honoring a loved one with a tribute page or by starting a Facebook fundraiser.
