Laurie Pitzer

Welcome to my fundraising page!

It's that time of year again! This will be my 6th year participating in Houston's annual 5K on November 9. Last year was our biggest team yet. I truly hope you'd consider joining me again in supporting the Colon Cancer Coalition’s mission to reduce barriers to colorectal cancer screening and educate the public about life saving colorectal cancer screening options. Together, we can make a difference.

Many of you know that I have battled colorectal cancer twice, and I'm so grateful to say that this year marks TWENTY-NINE years since my first diagnosis. I've seen the advances in research, treatment, and patient support, so I know our efforts are worth it!

Did you know that colorectal cancer is the second deadliest cancer? Only lung cancer kills more Americans each year than colon cancer, but it doesn’t have to be that way. Regular, early screening is essential to catching this disease before it begins and in its earliest stages. 

Survival rate is over 90% when caught in early stages.

By donating and sharing my page, you can directly help people that are impacted by colon cancer and help save lives.

Thank you for your support! We are stronger together.
