Thanks to colorectal cancer screening and advances in treatment, the death rate from colorectal cancer has declined. In fact, screening is also allowing more colorectal cancers to be found earlier when the disease is easier to cure. There are now more than 1 million survivors of colorectal cancer in the United States. Colorectal cancer screening can help save lives! 

In order to help promote colorectal cancer screening, MD Anderson Cancer Center is hosting its 9th Annual SCOPE (Sprint for Colorectal Oncology Prevention and Education) 5K Fun Run/Walk. 

SCOPE invites you to partner with us to build awareness, promote education and celebrate survivorship, Saturday, March 22, 2014.
