Colorectal Cancer is the second leading cause of cancer deaths in the United States, and it is one of the most preventable forms of cancer. Early screening colonoscopies reduce the risk of colorectal cancer by 80% or more.
"No Buts About It" is a 501( c )3 charity whose goal is to save lives through education and increased awareness of colorectal cancer, as well as emphasizing the importance of early screenings among our Greater Dayton community. It also provides free screening colonoscopies for local uninsured persons who meet economic hardship criteria.
Every year, "No Buts About It" holds a 5K Run/Walk for Colon Cancer Awareness with the goal of raising money for the free screening colonoscopies.
In 2016, the 9th Annual "No Buts About It" 5K Run/Walk and Wellness Fair for Colon Cancer Awareness occurred on Saturday, March 19, 2016, at The Mall at Fairfield Commons. Over 940 people joined us for this charity event, and we are expecting even more participants in 2017.
