Join us in Colorado Springs this summer to push yourself to new heights and support the fight against colorectal cancer. Climb Pike’s Peak, scale Manitou Incline, or hike the Garden of the Gods, all while supporting the fight against colorectal cancer.

What is Climb for a Cure?

What began with just 12 participants climbing to inspire others facing a figurative mountain and raising $500, has evolved into a flagship fundraising event for Fight CRC, raising over $1 million to date for colorectal cancer research programs. We’re excited to head back to Colorado – where the first Climb was hosted – for our 10th annual event.

Climb for a Cure is about more than scaling mountains. It’s about coming together as a community of colorectal cancer champions to support each other and overcome a challenge together. No one fights alone!
