Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the second most common cause of cancer death in the United States. In 2024, approximately 152,810 individuals will be diagnosed with CRC and 53,010 will die from the disease. In people under 55, death rates have been increasing about 1% per year since the mid-2000s. Colorectal Cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death for men and women combined. It affects 1 in 23 men and 1 in 25 women annually. Colorectal Cancer is also among one of the most poorly funded cancers compared to how common it is. Together, Erik Lecomte and Antonio Dionizio created Champions for Colorectal Cancer, Inc. to support our mission:

• To increase awareness of Colorectal Cancer among younger generations
• To provide assistance and advocacy to and for individuals/families who have been adversely impacted by Colorectal Cancer
• To raise funding for ongoing Colorectal Cancer research (ie; treatment, testing, etc.) 

We are excited to announce that our Champions for CRC 5th Annual Charity Golf Classic will take place on Monday, May 5, 2025 at Great River Golf Club. This championship-style 18-hole golf course offers a first-class experience for golfers of all abilities and is sure to provide a memorable day of sport and camaraderie for all. All monies raised at this annual event will help to support our mission.

Please consider a donation and accept our invitation to spend the day playing golf with us for a great cause. On behalf of all who benefit from your generous support, we personally thank you.
