The Kicking Butt 5K is an event to raise awareness and funds to eliminate preventable colon cancer by increasing screening rates.
Volunteers will help with various tasks, including parking, registration, t-shirt distribution, race route cheering, water distribution, logistics, face painting, Kids Zone, Healthy Village, photography, set-up, clean-up, and more!
Each year, thousands of families are affected by this common but little-discussed disease. Colon cancer is the 2nd leading cancer killer in both men and women in Kentucky, Indiana, and the whole U.S. despite the fact that it is one of the most preventable forms of cancer.
By participating in the 5K, you join our growing movement to make colon cancer a disease of the past. The Colon Cancer Prevention Project is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit on a mission to end preventable colon cancer death and suffering.
Let’s walk, run, and jog for a world without colon cancer.
Volunteers will help with various tasks to ensure a successful event!More opportunities with Colon Cancer Prevention Project
