Click for an Important Cause

by Shaw_Girl on June 22, 2009

As some of you know, my fabulous big sister is a colon cancer survivor, so I’m a huge advocate of colon cancer research.  I recently learned of an organization in DC called Colorectal Cancer Coalition.  Also called C3 (because their name has 3 C’s in it…get it), the Colorectal Cancer Coalition is a nonprofit, nonpartisan advocacy group committed to fighting colorectal cancer through research, education and awareness. Advocating research to improve the screening methods for the diagnosis of colorectal cancer, as well as its treatment, C3 is committed to ending colorectal cancer once and for all.  A smaller organization, C3 uses many mediums to spread its message of prevention, diagnosis, treatment and the search for a cure.  To help with this message, C3 is in the running to win a $25,000 social media makeover from CommuniCause.  And believe me, $25,000 can go a long way to inform the public about the fight against colorectal cancer.  So what can you do you ask?  Go over to this site and vote for C3 – the contest closes on July 31st and they need all the votes they can get to stay in the running!  This is a cause that is close to my heart, so I would appreciate every vote!

For more information about C3, visit their website (linked above) and learn how you can get involved!
