Support global access to colorectal cancer care

Each year, more than 2 million people around the world are diagnosed with colorectal cancer, and nearly 1 million people die of the disease. Equitable access to care can change that.
‍
Support GCCA’s efforts to ensure equitable access to colorectal cancer screening, testing, treatment, and care worldwide, because where you live in the world should not determine whether you can prevent or survive colorectal cancer. GCCA has developed a range of impactful programs to address key challenges in colorectal cancer prevention, treatment, and advocacy. These initiatives aim to empower communities, advance health equity, and foster collaboration worldwide.

Your kind support allows GCCA to

  • Finance colonoscopies for people who have had a positive FIT screening test
  • Subsidize educational seminars for local surgeons to ensure quality colorectal cancer surgical care
  • Provide policy training to local advocates to make change in their communities
  • Create and distribute culturally relevant patient educational materials about colorectal cancer screening, biomarker testing, and clinical trials, in multiple languages
  • Supply seed money to advocates starting local CRC advocacy organizations in areas where there are none
  • Fund awareness campaigns and events in local communities around the world

“We’ve been beneficiaries of the Equity Grant twice, last year and this year, and that has helped us in the fight against colorectal cancer in Nigeria. We are able to reach out to more people. There are some states in Nigeria that the message on colorectal cancer is still minimal, and we are taking the message. Courtesy of GCCA Equity Grants, we are able to take the education and awareness to these communities.”
