Come to DC for Free!

Posted by Carlea Bauman on November 20th, 2012

Fight Colorectal Cancer is pleased to announce that we will be providing scholarships for advocates to attend Call-on Congress 2013!

Scholarship applicants must be:

  • A voting resident in Arizona, Illinois, Indiana, Louisiana, Ohio, or Wisconsin
  • A colorectal cancer survivor or patient currently in treatment
  • A first time Call-on Congress attendee
  • “Like us” on Facebook

One person from each of the target states listed above will be selected to receive a scholarship to attend Call-on Congress. The scholarships are made possible through a private donation in memory of advocate and friend Joyce Anne Ware Longfellow, who passed away earlier this year. The aim is to help survivors come to Washington, DC and make their voices heard for the first time at Call-on Congress.

The deadline to apply is December 1st.
