Fight Colorectal Cancer President Carlea Bauman was joined by staff, survivors, advocates and fighters to “get behind a cure” and ring the NASDAQ closing bell.
We ring the bell to bring attention that colorectal cancer is the number two cancer killer in America. We need awareness that colorectal cancer can be prevented, treated, and beaten. We are issuing a call to action to increase funding for research, better access to colorectal screening, and the very best treatment for every American who is diagnosed with colon or rectal cancer.
On stage with Carlea was: Ben Basloe, Todd Jones, Josh Young, Rose Hausmann, Joanne Kimmel, Dana Rye, Katelyn Sherry and David Dubin.
