United in Blue

This installation represents our community’s desire for more research, more treatment options, more funding, and more lives saved. The installation is a visual representation of over 27,400 people under the age of 50 projected to be diagnosed with colorectal cancer in 2030.

Why an Installation on the National Mall?

In only 6 years, colorectal cancer is predicted to be the leading cause of cancer deaths for those between ages 20-49. We can change this, by investing in fighting colorectal cancer today.

We must fight for more, now. This installation is our stake in the ground to spotlight colorectal cancer as a national priority. United in Blue is on display while advocates are meeting with members of Congress and highlights the need for us to fight for more: more urgency, more equity, more funding.

Tribute Wall

This wall is a celebration and an opportunity to honor and remember the Relentless Champions from our community who have touched our lives. As champions and advocates, we are charged with honoring and sharing the stories of people impacted by colorectal cancer.
